Algebra.Com's Answer #8283 by rapaljer(4671)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! When the equation of a line is in slope intercept form, that is, y = mx+b, then:\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept is always the constant coefficient which is 5. \n" ); document.write( "The slope is always the coefficient of x, which in this case is 9 or 9/1. This graph is REALLY steep. You didn't ask for a graph, but I'm posting one anyway. It's SO easy!!\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "See my recently posted lesson plan on Graphing and Slope of a Line.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "R^2 at SCC \n" ); document.write( " |
