PLEEASSSEE HELP FOR MEDAL + FAN!!!! What is the slope? y = 5x - 4 The slope is ___.
Compare this with general equation : y = mx + c
where m = slope of line ; c = y - intercept ( a no.)
graph it first and then count the spaces up and across and make it a fraction for the slope
I thought it was y=mx+b
okay what's going on??
idk
Yeah, it's y = mx + b not y = mx + c.
The slope is 5. m = 5, b = y-intercept.
so the slope is y=mx+b
no
oh wait never mind
5 is slop and -4 is intercept
Well, in India and some other countries we use, y = mx + c.... While in other countries, y = mx + b ...! it is just the notation that differs. Meaning remains the same.
