Answer:

  • 7/5 => Slope,
  • -3 => y-intercept,

Explanation:

If a line's equation has the form y=mx+b, then finding the slope can be done within 2 seconds.

m is the Slope,

and the slope is always multiplied by the x co-ordinate.

b is the y-intercept,

and it's added to the product of the slope and the x co-ordinate.

Both the slope and the y-intercept can be any real number.

∵, slope =
\boxed{\rm{Slope=7/5}}

∵, y-intercept =
\boxed{\rm{Y-intercept=-3}}

done !!

Answer:

slope = m = 7/5

y-intercept = b = -3

Explanation:

y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

y = 7/5 x - 3

slope = m = 7/5

y-intercept = b = -3
