Find the y-intercept and the slope for the equation y=3.51x-7.23.
y=3.51x-7.23.
y = - 7.23 + 3.51x
This is compared with the equation
where = - 7.23 and =3.51
and are y-intercept and slope respectively
Slope measures the sensitivity of y with respect to x. How much y would change due to a unit change o=in 'x'. A negative slope with have inverse relationship between x and y.
y-intercept shows the starting point of 'y' when x = 0
