Graphing Slope Intercept Form

The slope-intercept form is given by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

The y-intercept (b) is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, b).

The slope (m) can be calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

The slope of the line is 3.

The y-intercept of the line is 5, represented as the point (0, 5).

A slope of 0 indicates that the line is horizontal.

An undefined slope indicates that the line is vertical.

Start at the y-intercept (0, -1), then use the slope (2) to rise 2 units up and run 1 unit to the right.

The equation is y = -1x + 4 or y = -x + 4.
