Let's use a as the x-intercept and b as the y-intercept and m as the slope.
The x-intercept is a point (a,0).
y = mx + b is called slope. y-intercept form of a linear equation. Since you need to find b, rearrange the equation to solve for b to get b = y - mx. Now use the point (a,0) n place of x and y to get b = 0 - ma, so b = -ma

Find the slope of the line: 5x - 5y = 7?
Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form y = m x + b and identify the value of m the slope. 5y = - 5x + 7 y = x - 7/5 The slope is given by the coefficient of x which is 1.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y equals 11.2 X?
If you mean: y = 11.2x then the slope is 11.2 and there is no y intercept
What is the slope and y intercept formula?
The slope intercept formula is y=mx + b in which m is the coefficent by x, x is the slope, and b is the y-intercept which is why it is called y-intercpet or slope-intercept. An example: y=3x + 7. Here your slope is three and y-intercept 7.
How would you find the equation of a line if you were given the slope and the y-intercept?
y = {slope}x + {y intercept}
How do you find slope intercept form when given coordinates?
Use: (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) to find the slope. Use: y -y1 = m(x -x1) to find the slope intercept equation whereas m is the slope.
What would the slope-intercept form be of a line with a 0.25 slope and an x-intercept of twenty-four?
slope intercept formula is given by y = mx+c where m is the slope and c is the x intercept so ur equation comes to... y=(0.25)x + 24
How do you find the slope intercept of a vertical line?
A vertical line on a graph has infinite slope and no y-intercept. Its equation is [ x = a number ]. The number is the line's x-intercept.
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.
What is a line in slope-intercept form?
A line in slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b m is the slope of the line, and b is the y-intercept. To find the slope, find any two coordinates, and divide the difference in y-values by the difference in x-values; to find the y-intercept, find the value of y where x = 0.
Find the slope of the line with the given equation 7y equals -14x plus 49?
7y = - 14 x + 49 divide with 7 on both sides , then we get y = - 2 x + 7 which is the form y = m x + c ( slope intercept form ) where m = slope and c = intercept so slope m = -2 for given line
What is slope and the y intercept for x plus y equals 4?
X + Y = 4. The standard form of a linear equation that makes the slope and Y-intercept obvious is: Y = (slope)X + (intercept). Re-arrange the given equation: Y = -X + 4 It's now in the standard form, and we can directly see that: Slope = -1 and Y-intercept = 4
Find the x in slope-intercept form?
The x is the variable of the slope. The formula for the slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. M would be the slope....ex: 3/4x....the b is the y-intercept...ex:4
How do you find the equation of a line if you are given the slope and the x intercept?
Use the given slope m and the x-intercept which yields the point (x-intercept value, 0) to write the point-slope form, (y - y1) = m(x - x1), of the equation of a line. For example, m = 1/2 x-intercept = 3 Let (x1, y1) = (3, 0), so we have (y - y1) = m(x - x1) (y - 0) = (1/2)(x - 3) y = (1/2)x - 3/2 (the slope-intercept form) (1/2)x - y - 3/2 = 0 (the general form of the equation of the line)

Slope is -1 y-intercept is 1 x-intercept is 1
What is the slope of a line that has a y-intercept but no x-intercept?
A line with a y-intercept but no x-intercept will be a straight line parallel to the x axis. It will have a slope of zero.
