Question 664356: find the slope and y-interept if possible of the equation of the line sketch the line
y=-3/2x+6

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
slope is -3/2
y-intercept is 6
as it follows the form y=mx+b where m is slope and b is intercept.

Per the graph, the line crosses the y axis at (0,6) and
the slope, which is rise over run can be seen using the points
(0,6) and (4,0) such that slope is
(0-6) / (4-0) = -6/4 = -3/2
