To put the equation 3y - 9 = 2x in y-intercept form (y = mx + b):
3y - 9 = 2x
3y = 2x + 9 (add 9 to both sides of the equation)
y = 2/3 x + 3 (divide all terms by 3)
The y-intercept is the b term in the equation, which in this example is 3.
The y-intercept equals 0.
Without an equality sign it cannot be classed as an equation
-1
Slope-Intercept Form: y = -2x +1
y = -2x+5 Slope: -2 Intercept: 5
The y-intercept equals 0.
Without an equality sign it cannot be classed as an equation
Slope-Intercept Form: y = -2x +1
The y intercept is 1
-1
2x-y = 4 -y = -2x+4 y = 2x-4 in slope-intercept form
Slope-Intercept Form: y = -2x +1
The slope is -2x and the y intercept is 5 Note that it will be a negative slope.
y = -2x+5 Slope: -2 Intercept: 5
2x+y=0 can be written in slope intercept formas y=-2x+0 or just y= -2x
y = 2x + 5At the y-intercept, x=0.y = 0 + 5y = 5
