Question

write the equation in slope intercept form the line -7 and y intercept 6

Answer 1

Is -7 the slope?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

the slope is -7 and y intercept 6

Answer 4

So do you know the slope intercept form?

Answer 5

i sure dont the question was "write the equation in slope-intercept from the line that has a slope -7 and y intercept 6"

Answer 6

y=mx+b
is the slope-intercept form
because m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Answer 7

So basically you were given m and b
So just replace m and b
and you got it! :)

Answer 8

thank u

Answer 9

np

Answer 10

i just dont understand slopes =/

Answer 11

Like how to use the slope in graphing?

Answer 12

yeap.... its so confusing to me

Answer 13

Slope=rise/run

If the top number is negative, we go down
If the top number is positive, we go up

If the bottom number is negative, we go left
If the bottom number is positive, we go right

Answer 14

gosh you made it easy!! =)

Answer 15

Coolness.

Answer 16

So if we have y=6x-4
Where the y-intercept is -4 and the slope is 6 ( or 6/1 since any integer can be written as a fraction by doing that integer/1)


We graph the y-intercept first (or called b by the y=mx+b form)

Then use the slope to find another point on the graph

So using the (0,-4) as a starting point, we find another point by going up 6 units from there and going over 1 unit since our slope was 6/1.
