Question 681394: identify the slope and y-intercept of the line with the given equation. Use the slope and y intercept to graph the equation. y=-x+5 also x-2y=-2
Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y = -x + 5
comparing to y = mx + b
m, slope is -1: negative means downward, decreasing line like \
b, y intercept is 5; plot (0, 5)
Starting at (0,5) move down the y axis one and right on the x axis one, repeatedly.
From (0,5) move up on the y axis one and left of the x axis one, repeatedly.

x-2y=-2
2y = x + 2
y = 
y = 
m, slope is  : positive slope means upward, increasing line like /
b, y intercept is 1; plot (0,1)
Starting at (0,1) move up the y axis one and right on the x axis 2, repeatedly.
From (0,1) move down the y axis one and left on the x axis 2, repeatedly.
