1. Determine the slope and y-intercept of the graph: 3x + y = 8
\n" ); document.write( " I got slope = 3, y-intercept = 8? right or wrong? if so please explain\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x + y = 8
\n" ); document.write( "add -3x to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "y =-3x+8
\n" ); document.write( "compare with y = mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "slope = -3
\n" ); document.write( "y intercept = 8\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2. Determine the slope and y-intercept of the graph: -x + 2y =4.
\n" ); document.write( " I got slope = -1/2, y-intercept = 2? same as above\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-x+2y=4
\n" ); document.write( "add x to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "2y=x+4
\n" ); document.write( "/2
\n" ); document.write( "y=1/2 *x+2
\n" ); document.write( "m= 1/2
\n" ); document.write( "y intercept = 2
\n" ); document.write( "...
