Find the slope and y-intercept.

Find the slope and y-intercept.
y=3x-5

A. m=-3; b=5
B. m=3; b=-5
C. m=0; b=5
D. m=-5; b=3

B

The equation of a line with slope and y-intercept is: y = mx + b Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

In your case the equation is y = 3x -5... then the slope is m= 3 and the y-intercept is b = -5
Then the option is B.

The mis the number on the x,so m=3. the b is he remaining term, so b is -5.

answer B note y=mx +c is an equation of a line whose slope is m and y-intercept is c
