Answer:

5) Slope(m): 2

y-intercept(b): (0, 4)

6) Slope(m): -1

y-intercept (b): (0, -6)

7) Slope(m): 5

y-intercept (b): (0, 8)

8) Slope(m): 7

y-intercept (b): (0, 1/2)

Explanation:

in order to find the slope and y-intercept you need to rewrite the equation in y=mx+b.

in 5, the equation is -2x+y=4. we need to add 2x to both sides to get y=2x+4. now you can find your slope (2) and your y-intercept point (0, 4)

in 6, the equation is x+y=6. we need to subtract x from to both sides so we get y=-x+6. you would get a slope of -1 and a y-intercept point of (0, 6)

in 7, the equation is -5x=8-y. we need to add 5x to both sides to get 0=8-y+5x. then add y to both sides so we get the equation y=5x+8. you have a slope of 5 and a y-intercept point of (0, 8)

in 8, the equation 0=1-2y+14x. we need to add 2y to both sides and we get 2y=14x+1. since we need y to stand alone we need to divide both sides by 2. now we have y=7x+1/2. the slope is 7 and the y-intercept point is (0, 1/2)

Hope this helps!! :)
