how to identify the slope and y-intercept of an equation

Question

pooja195 · Answer

Change your equation to fit the formula y=mx+b. The m is the slope and the b is the y intercept
How to turn it to y=mx+b:
Try to get the y isolated on one side and the other side to be: blankx+blank
I'll show u an example
2y-6=3x
add six to both sides. Now it looks like this
2y=3x+6
Complete the isolation of the y by dividing everything by two
y=3/2x+3
Done!
3/2 is your slope (rise over run) which means your line goes up three and to the right two.
3 is your y intercept
REMEMBER the formula
