Question

Identify the correct slope and y-intercept of the equation 5x - 3y = -6

my answer is slope = 5/3; y-intercept = (0, -6)

Am I right? :)

Answer 1

5x-3y=-6
-3y=-5x-6
y=5/3x+2

The slope is right. Check your y-intercept again.

Answer 2

y-intercept = (0, 2) ?

Answer 3

Yes. Are you familiar with slope-intercept form?

Answer 4

Sort of, I'm just starting to learn it :)

Answer 5

Thanks for the help! :)

Answer 6

y=mx+b

m is your slope and b is going to be your y-intercept.

Answer 7

No problem. Take care!

Answer 8

Oh ok thanks! =D
