Question

In the equation y = 8x - 2, name the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b). Type in the value for each below. *

Your answer
In the equation y = 1/4x + 6, name the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b). Type in the value for each below. *
Your answer

Answer 1

1 - Slope is 8 and y intercept is -2

2 - slope is 1/4 and y intercept is 6

Explanation:

Slope is m in the equation y = mx + b. Y intercept is always the b.

Answer 2

y = mx + b

m = Slope

b = y-intercept

y = 8x - 2

m = 8

b = -2

y = 1/4x + 6

m = 1/4

b = 6
