Question

What is the slope and y intercept of the line represented by this equation? y=9x-2​

Answer 1

Slope is 9 and -2 is the y-intercept

Explanation:

As an equation in slope-intercept form is written as y=mx+b where m is slope and b is its intercept on the y-axis.

If one writes a linear equation as a function of y, one can easily get slope which is coefficient of x and intercept, which is constant term.

As y= -9x is already in this form, we have its slope as -9 and intercept on y-axis is 0, that is if it passes through the line of origin.

Answer 2

Hello, I hope you are having a great day.

This equation is written in slope-intercept form.

y=mx+b

m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

So, in this equation, 9 is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Hope it helps. Ask me if you have any questions.
