When you are working with y=mx+b, (x,y) is a coordinate on the line, m is the slope, and b is the y intercept. You simply plot the y intercept and then pick a random value for x or y and solve the equation. This gives you two points on the line that you can connect creating a continuous line on the plane.

What the slope intercept for 13x-11y-12?
The graph of an equation has a slope and intercept.[ 13x - 11y - 12 ] is not an equation, and has no graph,until you say that it's equal to something.
What are the slope and y intercept of the graph of the equation 2x-y equals 1?
1
How do you write an equation in slope intercept form when given y-intercept and slope?
An equation in slope intercept form is given by y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.Examples:If the slope is 3 and the y- intercept is 4, the equation will be, y = 3x + 4If the slope is -1/5 and y-intercept is -2/3, the equation will be, y = -1/2)x - 2/3
Is a graph of an equation the same as an inequality?
no the graph will be written in slope intercept form or y=mx+b
Which equation represents a line perpendicular to the graph of 3x-6y12?
Solve the line equation for "y", to get it in slope-intercept form. You can immediately read the slope from this equation.Divide -1 by (slope of this first line) to get the slope of the second line - the one perpendicular to the given line. Write an equation for any line with this slope.
What is the y intercept and slope in this equation x equals -5?
There is no y-intercept or slope for this given equation, because its graph is a vertical line perpendicular to the x-axis.
How do you graph a linear equation slope intercept?
You can graph a linear equation slope intercept by solving the equation and plugging in the numbers : y=mx+b
What the slope intercept for 13x-11y-12?
The graph of an equation has a slope and intercept.[ 13x - 11y - 12 ] is not an equation, and has no graph,until you say that it's equal to something.
What is an equation for slope of -2 and y intercept of 3?
A straight line in slope-intercept format has the equation: y = mx + b Where m is the slope, b the y-intercept. So, all you have to do is copy this equation, then replace "m" by the given slope, and "b" by the given y-intercept.
What is the slope intercept form for x-y-1?
The graph of an equation can have a slope and an intercept. Sadly, "x-y-1" is not an equation, so it doesn't have any.
When should you use the slope-intercept form?
When you are trying to graph an equation.
Explain why the equation of a vertical line cannot be in slope-intercept form?
A vertical line on a graph has an infinite slope, and no y-intercept.
What is b in the slope intercept form?
b is where the line on the graph intercepts the y axis ( The vertical Line ) in a slope intercept equation
What are the slope and y intercept of the graph of the equation 2x-y equals 1?
1
How do you write the slope intercept form of the equation given the slope and y intercept?
Y=mc+b
