Question
Reduce the equation 8x - y = 9 in slope-intercept form to find its slope and y-intercept.
- Slope = 9 and y-intercept = -8
- Slope =
and y-intercept = -9 - Slope = 8 and y-intercept = -9
- Slope =
and y-intercept = 9
and y-intercept = -9 and y-intercept = 9
Hint:
To find the slope and intercept of the given equation we will arrange the equation in slope intercept form and then we can get slope and intercept.
The correct answer is: Slope = 8 and y-intercept = -9
Given equation is 8x - y = 9.
Slope intercept form = y= mx+ b
equating both,
8x-y= 9
8x-9= y
So, slope = 8, y- intercept = -9
