Question

What is the slope-intercept equation of a line with a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of 3/5?

Answer 1

Hey,

I know you already got the answer but I just wanted to provide a quick explanation/summary so you really let it sink in. :)

m= slope , b = y-intercept

y = mx+b

y = (1) x + 3/5

y = x+3/5

* There's no need to write the 1. :)

So your answer, as you said, would be b!

Hope this helped summarize things! :)

Answer 2

your answer should be C) y= -3/5x

because y=mx+b

the m=slope

b= y-intercept
