y = -3/5 x + 4
How do i find the slope? and how do i find the y intercept?
I have a test tomorrow and I need an answer soon, so please help!

y = -3/5 x + 4
The formula of a slope is:
y = mx + b
m = slope
The slope is -3/5
To find the y intercept, set x equal to zero.
y = -3/5 x + 4
y = -3/5 (0) + 4
y = 4
The answer is 4
The formula of a slope is:
y = mx + b
m = slope
The slope is -3/5
To find the y intercept, set x equal to zero.
y = -3/5 x + 4
y = -3/5 (0) + 4
y = 4
The answer is 4

Just recall the general equation for any straight line aka linear, function.
y = mx + c
where m = slope; c = y-intercept
Comparing your given equation with this one shows that
slope = (-3/5) and y-intercept = +4
y = mx + c
where m = slope; c = y-intercept
Comparing your given equation with this one shows that
slope = (-3/5) and y-intercept = +4

To find slope
Write any eq. In the form y = mx + c
m will be the slope.
To get y-intercept put x = 0
y = c
Therefore in ur eq.
Slope = -3/5
y-intercept = 4

Slope=-3/5
y-intercept=4
y-intercept=4
