Answer:

y = 6x - 5

Slope - 6

Y-Intercept - (-5)

y - 1 = 3x + 8.4

Slope - 3

Y-Intercept - 9.4

Answer:

slope: 3 || y-intercept: 9.4

Explanation:

Given equation:

y - 1 = 3x + 8.4

y = 3x + 8.4 + 1

y = 3x + 9.4

Comparing with the formula of slope intercept form: y = mx +b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

So here the slope: 3 and y-intercept is 9.4
