Question

What is the slope of the line? What is the y-intercept of the line? y = 5/4x - 3

Answer 1

m = 5/4

y intercept = -3

Explanation:

The given equation of the line is ,

`\implies y = (5)/(4)x -3`

We know that the Standard equation of Slope Intercept Form of the line is,

`\implies y = mx + c`

Where ,

• m is slope
• c is y intercept

On comparing to the Standard form of the line we get ,

`\implies Slope = (5)/(4)\\`

`\implies y - intercept= -3`

Answer 2

general slope intercept form of a straight line is, y = mx + c

Slope of the line (m) = 5/4,

y-intercept of the line if when x=0 i.e.

y = 5/4x - 3

y = 5/4×0 - 3

y = -3
