Question

How do we find a y intercept and a slope from this equation y=-1/6x+10?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So all you have to do to find the slope and y intercept in that equation is look at which number is "with" the x and which is added on.

In any equation written in slope formula or y=mx+b, we can say that m = slope and b = y-intercept

So in this case we have y=-1/6x + 10

That means that m = -1/6 and b = 10

So:

Our slope is -1/6 and our y-intercept is 10.
