Slope-Intercept Form of the Linear Equation

y = mx + bm

= slope

b

= y-interceptAny linear equation which is solved for y

is in slope-intercept form.

Page 3: Graphing lines using slopeintercept

Find the Find the slopeslope and and y-intercepty-intercept of the of the following linear equations:following linear equations:

y = 3x + 4m = 3 b = 4

y = -2x - 1m = -2 b = -1

y = x -9 4

m = b =9 4

Tell whether the lines below are parallel.

1) 3x + y = 7 y = -3x + 1

y = -3x + 7

m = -3

y = mx + b

m = -3

Lines are parallel!

Same slope!
