An equation of a line can be put into the form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. So if the slope is -2 the equation should be able to be rearranged into y = -2 + b, and the point (0,b) will be where the line intersects the y-axis.
A vertical line does not have a slope - negative or positive. It is not defined. A vertical line has no y intercept and, if its equation is x = c (for some number c), then the x-intercept is (c, 0).
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept y=2x-8.
The slope intercept equation of a line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
tough to answer, but if slope is only provided then it should intercept at (0,0). Such as, y=3x, that intercepts at 0.

A vertical line does not have a slope - negative or positive. It is not defined. A vertical line has no y intercept and, if its equation is x = c (for some number c), then the x-intercept is (c, 0).
A vertical line on a graph has infinite slope and no y-intercept. Its equation is [ x = a number ]. The number is the line's x-intercept.
A line in slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b m is the slope of the line, and b is the y-intercept. To find the slope, find any two coordinates, and divide the difference in y-values by the difference in x-values; to find the y-intercept, find the value of y where x = 0.
slope intercept form is y=mx+b (m is slope, b is y intercept) slope = 4, y intercept = -2 y = 4x -2
y = {slope}x + {y intercept}
the slope formula is y=mx+b slope-intercept form of an equation of a line. where m=slope and b=the y-intercept
y=Mx + b m = slope b= y-intercept
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept y=2x-8.
The slope intercept equation of a line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
If you have any expression that defines a line, you can find the slope of the line. After you have found the slope of the line, you can then write an expression describing the line in slope intercept form. You can't define a slope-intercept form for any nonlinear equation, because the slope is always* changing; there are often several intercepts as well.
The answer depends on the signs of the original intercepts.x negative, y negative: negative slope becomes less negative and could go positive.x negative, y positive: positive slope becomes greater.x positive, y negative: positive slope becomes less positive and could go negative.x positive, y positive: negative slope becomes more negative.For 1 and 3, the slope changes sign when the y intercept crosses the origin.
By using the straight line equation of y = mx+c whereas m is the slope and c is the y intercept
