Remember to write the equation in Y = mx + b

PLEASE HELP !!!!!

Answer:

Slope (m) = 3, y-intercept (b) = -1

Explanation:

First, we need to write the equation in y = mx + b.

To do this, add 3x to both sides.

y = 3x - 1 is your result.

Now, we have everything we need to do determine our slope and y-intercept in just this equation alone.

Remember, m = slope and b = y-intercept.

In this equation:

m = 3

b = -1

So your slope is 3, and your y-intercept is -1
