what is the slope and y intercept of y= -2/3x - 2. Or rather how do I figure it out?

Question

ryan123345 · Answer

The slope is -2/3  the y intercept is -2

ryan123345 · Answer

the number next to the x is the slope and the one to the right is the y intercept

ryan123345 · Answer

but before u can say that u have to put it in y=mx+b form.

ryan123345 · Answer

if the slope is just x and there is no number next to it than the slope 1. :)

Oh okay, makes sense. So as long as there is a number or fraction next to the X that is the slope and if there is none then it is always 1?

ryan123345 · Answer

yup. if there is just a x than it is just 1
