slope means the difference in the y-values over the difference in the x-values.

y-intercept means the point at which the graph goes through the y-axis.

What is a slope used for?

It shows the relationship of y in terms of x. [y = (yIntercept) + ((slope)*(x))] [slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)]


What is the slope and yintercept of y plus 4x plus 3?

There is no slope nor intercept because there is no equation, simply an expression.


How do you write an equation of a line that passes through the xintercep and yintercept?

You can write it either in standard form (ax + by = c) or in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)

How do you find the slope and y-intercept of an equation?

first of all, i dont see how slope and yintercept has anything to do with shopping. usually in an equation, y= mx+b, m stands for slope, and b is the y-intercept. x and y are just x and y. If the equation is mixed up, and is not in y=mx+b format, you need to solve to get y on one side, the slope, x, and whatever the presented constant is (which is the y-intercept) on the other side. hope this helps.


What is the slope of a line x equals 5?

X=5 is a vertical line, so it has no slope. When I say it has no slope, I don't mean the slope is 0, I mean the slope is nonexistent.

What does the m mean in slope?

This is true for many reson the answer is that it used to be called "module of slope" but now its just called slope.


What would the equation of a line be if it went through the point 2 comma 2 and its yintercept was 10?

We know that the line passes through points (2, 2) and (0, 10) (since the y-intercept is 10).Using these two points, we can find the slope of the line,m = (10 - 2)/(0 - 2) = 8/-2 = 4/-1 = -4.Now by using the slope, m = -4, and the y-intercept, 10, we can write the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b which isy = -4x + 10.
