Question

Identify the slope and y-intercept of the
line!

Answer 1

Slope of the line =
`(1)/(2)`.

y-intercept of the line = -7.

Solution:

General form of equation of a line:

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept of the line.

Equation of a line:

`$y=(1)/(2) x-7`

To compare this with general equation.

`$m=(1)/(2)`

`c=-7`

Slope of the line =
`(1)/(2)`.

y-intercept of the line = -7.
