It is part of the equation that intercepts the y axis
For example the straight line equation: y = 2x+4 is in slope-intercept form and 4 is the y intercept and 2 is the slope.
It is in slope intercept form. The slope is 0 and the y-intercept is -2.
y = -5x+2 in slope intercept form
slope intercept form is y=mx+b (m is slope, b is y intercept) slope = 4, y intercept = -2 y = 4x -2

slope-intercept from is y=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. put the values of the slope and y-intercept into the equation. y=2x-2
The slope-intercept form of an equation is: y = mx + b Just copy down this equation, then replace "m" with the slope, and "b" with the y-intercept.
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept y=2x-8.
It is: y = -2x+2
