Question

How do you find the slope and y intercept to sketch `y=-2/3x+7`?

Answer 1

Slope `=-2/3`

`y`-intercept `=7`

Explanation:

The given equation

`y=- 2/3x +7`

is in the slope-intercept form of a straight line equation, i.e.

`y=mx+c`

where

• `m` is the slope
• `c` is the `y`-intercept

So according to this, the slope will be `-2/3` and the `y`-intercept will be `7`.
