Question

What is the slope and y-intercept of the line `Y=1/2x-3`?

Answer 1

Slope is `1/2`
y-intercept is `(0,-3)`

Explanation:

The slope intercept formula for the equation of a line is
`y=mx+b`

Where `m` is the slope and `b` is the y value of the point of the intercept.

For the equation `y=1/2x -3`

`m = 1/2`
`b=-3`

Making the slope `1/2` and the point of the y-intercept is `(0,-3)`
