Question

Find the: SLOPE = y - Intercept= x - Intercept= Of the equation y=x-4

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = 1

y-intercept = (0 , -4)

x - intercept = (4 , 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

Note that there is no number besides the x. When this happens, the slope is to be assumed as 1.

The number (and sign) that replaces the b is the y-intercept. In this case, it is (0 , -4).

The x-intercept is the point in which you intercept the y-line at 0. Plug in 0 for y, and solve for x:

0 = 1(x) - 4

0 = x - 4

0 (+4) = x - 4 (+4)

x = 4

x-intercept = (4 , 0)
