What is the slope and the y-intercept?
Choose the correct answer from each drop-down menu to complete the sentence.
The slope is _____ , and the y-intercept is _____ .

Answer

To find the slope, use the formula for the slope of a line (m) between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂):

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Using the points (0, -3) and (3, 10.5):

m = (10.5 - (-3)) / (3 - 0) = 13.5 / 3 = 4.5

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, which is -3.

The slope is 4.5, and the y-intercept is -3.
