Find the slope and the y-intercept of the equation y = 9 + 3/7x
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The \"slope-intercept\" form of a linear equation is:
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "where
\n" ); document.write( "m is the slope
\n" ); document.write( "b is the y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "We can rewrite your equation:
\n" ); document.write( "y = 9 + 3/7x
\n" ); document.write( "as
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3/7x + 9
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Then, from inspection, we see that
\n" ); document.write( "m = 3/7
\n" ); document.write( "b = 9
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "So,
\n" ); document.write( "Slope is 3/7
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept is at (0,9)
\n" ); document.write( " \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
