You can graph a linear equation slope intercept by solving the equation and plugging in the numbers : y=mx+b
-- In the equation of the graph, set x=0. -- Solve the equation for 'y'. -- The value you get for 'y' when x=0 is the y-intercept.
At a y-intercept, the graph touches the y-axis, meaning the value of x is 0. So, in any linear equation, simply set x equal to 0 and solve for y. In the slope-intercept form of a linear equation (y = mx + b), the y-intercept value is represented by the variable b.
If that should be y = 2 the slope is 0 and the y intercept is 2.
Solve the equation for y. This will give you an equation similar to y = ax + b, where a is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.
