Question

how do you do slope intercept form

Answer 1

y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept (when x=0)

Answer 2

but how would you solve y=-2x+5

Answer 3

you need some value for x, or y

Answer 4

unless you're asked, find the slope, or find the y-int

Answer 5

would that be 5?

Answer 6

when x=0 y is 5

Answer 7

5 is the y-intercept

Answer 8

oh ok and the -2x is the x intercept?

Answer 9

no, -2 is the slope.. you find the x-intercept by the same idea, when y=0

Answer 10

let me show you..
