y=3/4x-2

A. Slope: 4/3; intercept: -2

B. Slope: -2; intercept: 3/4

C. Slope: -2; intercept: -3/4

D. Slope: 3/4; intercept: -2
*** My answer: D. slope=3/4 and intercept=-2
Am i right?!? :D

Answer 1

you are correct! y = mx + b

This is called the slope-intercept form because "m" is the slope and "b" gives the y-intercept. (For a review of how this equation is used for graphing, look at slope and graphing.)

Answer 2

yay!! thanks :)
