Math Problem Statement
Find the slope and y intercept of the line y=7/4x-4
Solution
The given equation of the line is:
This is in slope-intercept form, , where:
- is the slope
- is the y-intercept
Slope:
The coefficient of is the slope, so:
Y-intercept:
The constant term is the y-intercept, so:
Final Answer:
- Slope (m):
- Y-intercept (b):
