Question

What are the slope and y-intercept of the linear equation below y=2\3x - 1​

Answer 1

2/3 slope, -1 y intercept.

Explanation:

Equations in y=mx+b forms follow these rule- y is the dependent variable, and x is the independent variable; m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

This means that the m, or slope is 2/3, and the y intercept is -1.

Answer 2

2/3 is the slope and

-1 is the y intercept

Explanation:

y = 2/3 x -1

This is in the form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

2/3 is the slope and

-1 is the y intercept
