You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The slope in the general formula
\n" ); document.write( "y=mx+b is m and the y-intercept is b.
\n" ); document.write( "so
\n" ); document.write( "(i) m=1 and b=2
\n" ); document.write( "(ii) \"m=-1%2F6\" and \"b=-1%2F2\".
\n" ); document.write( "For an extent view the slope is\"m=y%2Fx\" in the equation y=mx and every other one of the form y=mx+b ,
\n" ); document.write( "so if you plug x=0 you have \"y=m%2A0%2Bb\" that is y=b.
\n" ); document.write( "And the point (0,b) is on the y-axis...and belongs to graph of the equation...
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
