ANSWER IN 5 MINUTES FOR MEDAL AND FAN! ANSWER IN 5 MINUTES FOR MEDAL + FAN! What is the slope, and what is the y-intercept of the line? THIS IS THE EQUATION: http://static.k12.com/bank_packages/files/media/mathml_e55df286e6c9b75757e7667086d5a09cf006953d_1.gif @TheSmartOne @hartnn @lloio @iGreen
Remember this is just like the last one. It's in the form of: y = mx + b Where m = slope And where b = y-intercept.
I go to k12!
\(y = mx + b\) m = slope b = y-intercept \(y = \dfrac{2}{3}x - 4\) So what's the slope and what's the y-intercept?
iT IS IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER.
The number that comes right before the x is the slope. The number that comes right after the x is the y-intercept. So can you tell me what the slope and the y-intercept are?
OKAY SO \[2/3\] IS M? and 4 is the b?
@iGreen
Yes! 2/3 is the slope. However, it's not 4..remember there's a minus sign right before it..so what is it?
Negative 4.
Yep!
So: Slope = 2/3 y-intercept = -4
YASS! Thank you.
