You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If you are given the equation of a line in the form y=mx+b (that means in the form of \"y\" equal to \"a number times x plus another number\"), then the slope is the coefficient of x and the number term is the y-intercept. That is the slope is m, and the y-intercept is b.\r

Near the top of the search list, look for \"Rapalje Homepage.\" Near the top of my Homepage, look for the link \"Basic, Intermediate and College Algebra: One Step at a Time.\" Select \"Basic Algebra\" and look for \"Chapter 4 Graphing , Slope of a Line, etc\". This specific question is explained in detail in my \"Section 4.02 Graphing and Slope of a Line.\" There may also be \"MATH IN LIVING COLOR\" sections that correspond to these sections, where many of the exercises I have provided are solved in great detail, even better -- IN COLOR!! \r
