Question

What is slope of the line?
y=-6+4.5x
1)-6
2)-4.5
3)4.5
4)6​

Answer 1

Answer: The slope is 4.5

=========================

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation y = -6 + 4.5x is the same as y = 4.5x + (-6)

Compare this to y = mx + b and we see that

m = 4.5 is the slope

b = -6 is the y intercept.

note: we can write y = 4.5x + (-6) as y = 4.5x - 6
