Question

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

y = x + 4

Answer 1

the number in front of x is the slope if it is in this y-intercept form where there is only a 1 in front of y. So slope in this problem = 1

Answer 2

y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is a constant

Answer 3

slope is 1 and the y intercept is (0,4)?

Answer 4

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is:
y = mx + b,
where m = slope, and b = y-intercept, where (0, b) is the y-intercept
In your case, the equation is already written in slope-intercept form, so just do a direct comparison with the eqution.

Thank you so much! Still working on more problems. I'm trying to understand..
