In this example we have -3-1 which is the same as 31 or 3. From slope-intercept form what did we expect to get. When we find slope in standard form we take the A term divide by B then change the sign or we just say -AB.
The slope-intercept form is the second most commonly used form of linear equations.
It is usually written in the form of y m x b Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The slope-intercept form is the second most commonly used form of linear equations. X and y are just our variables but x 1and y 1are the coordinates of a specific point on the line and m is the slope. Once the equation of the line is in slope-intercept form and is simplified then the slope equals the term in front of the x variable.
