Find the slope and the y-intercept. y = –9x + 8
The slope intercept form of a line is highlight%28y=mx%2Bb%29, m=slope, and (0,b) is the y-intercept.
y=highlight%28-9%29x%2B8 the slope m=-9
y=-9x%2Bhighlight%288%29 the y-intercept is (0,b)=(0,8), some books and teachers let you say 8.
Happy Calculating!!!
