Example Question #41 : Finding Slope And Intercepts
The point 
For this problem you are given two values, the coordinates of a point, and the slope. The missing value is the 
Once you plug in 
Example Question #42 : Finding Slope And Intercepts
Find the y-intercept of the following linear equation:
Find the y-intercept of the following linear equation:
The y intercept is where a line crosses the y-axis. At this point, our x value must be 0.
To find our y intercept, we simply need to plug in 0 for x and solve for y.
So, our answer is:
Example Question #282 : Algebra
Find the slope of the following linear equation:
Find the slope of the following linear equation:
We can find the slope by solving this equation for y.
First, add 48 to both sides
Next, divide both sides by 4
Now, our slope is simply the number attached to our x variable. In this case, it is 4
Example Question #281 : Algebra
Find the x-intercept of the following linear equation:
Find the x-intercept of the following linear equation:
The x-intercept is where a line crosses the x axis. At the x-intercept the y value must be equal to 0.
To find our x-intercept, we are going to plug in 0 for y and solve.
Next, divide by 16.
So as an ordered pair, our answer is:
Example Question #841 : Ged Math
A line on the coordinate plane has slope 
Two parallel lines have the same slope, or are both vertical. Since the first line has slope 
Example Question #844 : Ged Math
What is the y-intercept of a line that has a slope of 
Recall what the slope-intercept form of an equation looks like:
Start by writing the equation in point-slope form:
Simplify this equation and re-write it into slope-intercept form.
Since the value of 
Example Question #51 : Finding Slope And Intercepts
What is the y-intercept of the equation that has a slope of 
Recall the point-slope form of the equation of a line:
Put the given line into point-slope form.
Rearrange the equation so that it is in slope-intercept form.
Since 
Example Question #52 : Finding Slope And Intercepts
What is the y-intercept for the line that goes through the point 
Start by writing out the equation of the line in point-slope form.
Rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form.
Now, since 
Example Question #53 : Finding Slope And Intercepts
Where do the following equations intercept?
If we want to find where the equations intercept, you need to set them equal to each other. So,
becomes,
Subtract 1 from both sides to get the variable by itself,
Divide both sides by 3,
gives us our final answer of
Example Question #54 : Finding Slope And Intercepts
Find the slope between 
Step 1: Recall the formula to find slope:
Step 2: Find the values of 
According to the problem:
Step 3: Plug in...
