Question 807370:  what is the slope [and the y-intercept] of y-5=1/3(x-6) 
 Answer by TimothyLamb(4379)      (Show Source): 
You can  put this solution on YOUR website! First, get the equation into slope-intercept form: y = mx + b 
--- 
by algebra like so: 
--- 
y - 5 = (1/3)x - (6/3) 
y - 5 = (1/3)x - 2 
y     = (1/3)x - 2 + 5 
y     = (1/3)x + 3 
--- 
Answer: 
Slope (m)       = 1/3 
Y-intercept (b) = 3
