Question

The slope and y intercept of y=7/8x-3

Answer 1

the slope is 7/8 and the y-intercept is -3.

Answer 2

The slope is ⅞

The intecept on y-axis is -3

Explanation:

Generally,

Equation of a straight line is given as

y=mx + c

Where m is the slope

c is the intercept at the y-axis

So, given that,

y=⅞x -3

This equation of line given is already written in standard form and we don't need to rearrange.

So, comparing this to the equation of a line given above

We see that,

The slope m=⅞ and

The intercept c = -3
