Question

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the line.
Y=2x-5

Answer 1

Slope = 2

y-intercept = (0, -5) or just -5

Explanation:

In the equation y = mx + b,

m represents the slope

and

b represents the y-intercept.

So in the equation y = 2x - 5, 2 represents the slope since it is in place of m, and -5 represents the y-intercept since it is in place of b.
