Question

Find the slope and y-intercept of each line.

y = x – 3

A.
slope: 3, y-intercept: –1

B.
slope: –3, y-intercept: 1

C.
slope: 1, y-intercept: –3

D.
slope: –1, y-intercept: –3

Answer 1

So the slope is the number before x....

Answer 2

so what number is that

Answer 3

y

Answer 4

no...

Answer 5

3

Answer 6

i mean like:
y=mx+b so what is m in this case?

Answer 7

idk???

Answer 8

ok here this problem might be a little confusing..... so take this for example:
y=3x+5

Answer 9

the number before x is 3

Answer 10

that's is your slope

Answer 11

y=mx+b
m= slope

Answer 12

ok....

Answer 13

So in this case:y=x-3
so there's no number before x so it's one. because x times 1 is still x.....

Answer 14

does that help a little more?

Answer 15

so C is the answer???

Answer 16

yes

Answer 17

because in the equation: y=mx+b b is the y intercept...
