Question

Identify the slope and intercept of the following linear equation. y=3/7x-5

Answer 1

Slope is 3/7
y-intercept=-5
Because
y=mx+b
m, is the slope
b, is the y-intercept

Answer 2

slope = m = 3/7

y-intercept = b = -5

Explanation:

y = mx + b is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line

where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.

slope = m = 3/7

y-intercept = b = -5
