The slope intercept form is found by using this formula: y=mx+b. so the coefficient of x is the slope or 'm'. You can find the slope using this formula: y2-y1/x2-x1 wherein the first y is the y value of your coordinate (x,y) and the y2 is the second y value of the coordinate (x,y) The same applies to the x values. The first x value is the first part of your ordered pair ((x),y)..the x part. The second x value is the other 'part' of the ordered pair given to you...or ((x),y). If you're only given one x,y value, then you will need another formula y-y1=m(x-x1) and to find the slope. You only need fill in one of the values, the x1 and y1 values with your given point. You will almost always be given a slope and a point, or a graph which you can figure out the slope for, or two points.

In the slope-intercept equation for a line the coefficient of the -term gives the slope?
x
In the slope-intercept equation for a line the coefficient of the x-term gives the .?
The coefficient of the x term gives the gradient of the slope.
In the generalized slope-intercept equation of a line the slope of the line is represented as the coefficient of the variable x?
Your statement is correct. y=mx+b when m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
How would you find the equation of a line if you were given the slope and the y-intercept?
y = {slope}x + {y intercept}
Is the x intercept the same as the slope?
No. In a linear equation, y = mx + b, the slope is m, and the x intercept is where mx + b = 0.
In the slope-intercept equation for a line the coefficient of the -term gives the slope?
x
In the slope-intercept equation for a line the coefficient of the x-term gives the .?
The coefficient of the x term gives the gradient of the slope.
What does the coefficient of the x-term gives in the slope-intercept equation for a line?
The "slope-intercept" form of a line is an equation of the form:y = mx + b The "m" term - the coefficient you are asking for - is the slope of the line. The "b" is the y-intercept.
In the slope intercept what coefficient gives the slope?
Th formul for slope-intercept is y=mx+b. y= the y-coordinate m= the slope x= the x-coordinate b= the y-intercept Therefore if your equation was y=3x+5 then the coefficient that gives the slope is 3.
How to find slope and y intercept form?
The slope intercept form equation is stated as the following: y= mx + b. Where m is the slope or the coefficient in front of the x and b is the y intercept.
How do you figure out slope in the equation y equals 12x 6?
This equation is in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where the coefficient of x, m, is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Thus, in the equation y = 12x + 6, the slope is 12.
How do you find the slope and y-intercept for y equals 2x-3?

In the slope intercept equation for a line the coefficient of the xterm gives the?
The slope intercept formula is Y=mX + b. M, which is your coefficient of X represents the line's slope.
What is the slope and y-intercept of y equals 3x - 2?

In the generalized slope-intercept equation of a line the slope of the line is represented as the coefficient of the variable x?
Your statement is correct. y=mx+b when m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y3.8x?
The equation provided does not have a defined slope. The slope of a line is determined by the coefficient of the x-term in the equation, but there is none in the given equation.
How would you find the slope in the problem Y plus X equals 7?
First you subtract X from both sides. The equation then becomes Y = 7 - X. You can rewrite this as Y = -X + 7. Then the equation is in slope-intercept form Y = mx + b where m is the slope. By using this definition you can know that the coefficient attached to X is the slope. In the equation, X has a coefficient of -1 so the slope is -1.
