How do you find the slope and y-intercept for the line #y+3= -1/3x#?

Answer 1

#y# intercept #=-3#
slope #=1/3#

#y+3=-1/3x#

Solve it for #y# Equation in the standard form Its constant term is #y# intercept. The coefficient of #x# is slope. #y=-3+1/3x#

#y# intercept #=-3# slope #=1/3#

To find the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) of the given equation, we first need to isolate y.

Given: y + 3 = -1/3x

Subtract 3 from both sides to isolate y:

y = -1/3x - 3

Now, we can see that the equation is in the slope-intercept form, where the slope (m) is -1/3 and the y-intercept (b) is -3. Therefore, the slope is -1/3 and the y-intercept is -3.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
