Question

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the equation y − 3(x − 1) = 0

Answer 1

SLOPE =3
Y-INTERCEPT=-3

Answer 2

Answer: The slope of line m=3

The y-intercept of the line =-3 i.e (0,-3)

Explanation:

The given equation of line :
`y - 3(x - 1) = 0`

On simplifying,
`y =3x-3`

On comparing the general equation of line in intercept form
`y=mx+c`, where m is the slope of line and c is the y intercept, we get

The slope of line m=3

Substitute x=0 in the equation, we get

The y-intercept of the line =-3 i.e (0,-3)
