Find the slope and the y intercept of the line
Y=1/2x-8

Sagot :

The slope of the line y=(1/2)*x-8 is 1/2.

When x=0, y=-8.

Therefore the y intercept of the line is at: (0,-8).

The equation you have presented is in slope intercept form.

Slope Intercept Form: y = mx + b

In slope intercept form, the variable m represents the slope, the variable b represents y value of the y-intercept, and the variables x and y represent a point on the graph. They are left as variables when writing the equation of a line.

y = 1/2x - 8

Here, m = 1/2 and b = -8.

From this, we know the slope is 1/2 and the y value of the y-intercept is -8.

Slope: 1/2
Y - Intercept: (0, -8)
