Question

what are slop and y-intercept for the graph of -3x+=1

Answer 1

rearrange it so that you get it in the form of y=mx + b so bring everything to one side

Answer 2

i still dont get it. 1=3x+y ?

Answer 3

okay have everything equaling y so y=-3x + 1

Answer 4

wait, you changed it what is your original equation?

Answer 5

-3x+y=1

Answer 6

so then y=3x +1

Answer 7

this equation is in the form of y=mx + b, are you familiar with that equation? Its known as the slope equation becasue m represents slope while b represents the y intercept

Answer 8

*slope formula

Answer 9

yes i am aware of it. so it would be y=3x+1 . therefore the y intercept would be 1 and the slope would be -3 ?

Answer 10

it would be just 3 not -3 but yea

Answer 11

oh ok. i get it know. solve for y then find the slope. ok thanks.

Answer 12

no prob
