Given the equation y = 1/3x - 7, what are the slope and the y-intercept?


m = 1/3 and b = -7
m = -1/3 and b = -7
m = 1/3 and b = 7
m = -1/3 and b = 7


Sagot :

Answer:

[tex]m=\frac{1}{3}[/tex] and [tex]b=-7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope-intercept form is [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

so...

 and

[tex]m=\frac{1}{3}[/tex] and [tex]b=-7[/tex]

The answer is A. m=1/3 and b=-7.

y=1/3x-7 is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b). m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.
