What is the slope, and what is the y-intercept of the line? y = 1/2x - 5 ( both are fractions)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to turn a whole into a fraction simply put it over 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the slope is -5 over 1 and the y-intercept is 1/2 ?? @atreyu6s3x6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

close m is the slope so its 1/2 and b is the y-intercept so its -5/1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok thank you :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem :) have a great day
