Question

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




slope =

Answer 1

hint:
the slope of this line: \(y=mx+q\), is the coefficient \(m\)

Answer 2

Thanks. I need help with some more answers, if you will

Answer 3

ok!

Answer 4

@Michele_Laino What is the y-intercept of the line?
y = -7x + 1



y-intercept =

Answer 5

1

Answer 6

the y-intercept, of this line \(y=mx+q\) is the coefficient \(q\)

Answer 7

why? the y intercept is in the format (0,y) and you just solve for y. so -7(0) + 1

Answer 8

yes! if we set x=0, we get:
\(y=m \cdot 0+q=0+q=q\)

Answer 9

In other words it is the contant of your equation

Answer 10

constant
