Question

need some help with slope and intercepts, can anyone help with this?

Answer 1

What is the y-intercept of the line?

y = -7x + 1

Answer 2

y=mx+b
b=y intercept

Answer 3

so how do i use that?

Answer 4

Well look at the given equation

Answer 5

y = -7x + 1
y=mx+b

Answer 6

how do i know which is m and which and b?

Answer 7

or is it always in that order?

Answer 8

For slope intercept form it will always be in this order you know m is the slope
its always the number next to the x

Answer 9

okay so is the answer as simple as the b = 1? cause it sure dosent seem that simple

Answer 10

Well it is! :)
b=1
It is simple don't over think things

Answer 11

so would this be 2 then

What is the slope of the line?

y = 2x - 7

Answer 12

Yes, correct :)

Answer 13

What is the slope, and what is the y-intercept of the line?

y = 2/3x - 4

my guess is the slope is 2/3 and the y intercept is 4? correct?

Answer 14

Good :)

Answer 15

alright just making sure

Answer 16

thank you for your help!

Answer 17

Yw ^_^
