Question

What is the slope of the line? y= -3x+8

Answer 1

\[\Large y = -3x+8\]
is in the form
\[\Large y = mx+b\]

Answer 2

notice how the -3 and m match up
\[\Large y = \color{red}{-3}x+8\]
\[\Large y = \color{red}{m}x+b\]

Answer 3

so 8 is known as the y intercept right?

Answer 4

m = slope
b = y intercept

Answer 5

answer: -3
