Question

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the line

Answer 1

The slope is basically the coefficient of x and that is 1 since 1x=x. To find the y-intercept, you need to subtitute x=0 into y=x+5 because x is at 0 when you are looking at the y-intercept.

y=0+5=5

So the slope is 1 and the y-intercept is 5.
