Please help!!

Find the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of each line.

1.) y = x - 3

2.) y = 2 x - 3

3.) y = 5/3x - 2

Answer 1

Find the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of each:

All equations are already in slope intercept form of:

y = mx + b

where m = slope and b = y-intercept

SO:

1.) y = x - 3

slope = 1

y-intercept: (0, -3)

2.) y = 2x - 3

slope = 2

y-intercept: (0, -3)

3.) y = 5/3x - 2

slope = 5/3

y-intercept: (0, -2)
