Question

y = -2/3x – 2

–2x + 3y = -6

Identify the slope and the y-intercept of the equation.

Answer 1

to find the slope remember y=mx+c

Answer 2

so in your first equation slope= coefficient of x...guess what it is?

Answer 3

umm it would be -2 ? @ghazi

Answer 4

nope it's -2/3

Answer 5

okayyy, so what do I do know? @ghazi

Answer 6

well in the next equation try to write it in standard form that is y= mx+c

Answer 7

So I would -2x+3y=-6 into standard form? @ghazi

Answer 8

3y=-6+2x............therefore y= (-6+2x)/3 now what next? solve this

Answer 9

it will be same as you have done above...and to find intercept try to write equation x/a+y/b=1

Answer 10

woooah i just got confused..im sorry @ghazi

Answer 11

divide second equation by -6 your intercept would be -2

Answer 12

y intercept...=-2
