Slope- intercept form of a linear equation:

y = mx + b;

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

• To find the slope:


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

If we have points (-2,3) and (5,3); then:


m=(3-3)/(5+2)=0

The slope of the line is m = 0.

• Now, to find the y - intercept:

3 = (0)(5) + b

b = 3.

The y - intercept of the line is b = 3.

• Equation in slope - intercept form:

y = mx + b

y = (0)x + 3

y = 3
