a
b
Slope = 6, y-intercept is (085)
Slope 6 y intercept is (0 8.5)
c
d
Slope 85 y-interceptis (06)
Slope 85 y intercept is (0.6)
Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answer 1

Slope = 85

y-intercept = (0, 6)

Explanation:

y = 85x + 6 is in the slope-intercept form of a line, whose general equation is given by:

y = mx + b, where:

• m is the slope,
• and b is the y-intercept (note that for any y-intercept, the x-coordinate is always 0).

Therefore, the slope is 85 and the y-intercept is (0, 6).
