Learn how to write an equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) for the line with a slope of -3/4 that goes through the point (0,8). We identify the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) to create our …

Slope shows how steep a line is and how one value changes compared to another. It tells if the line goes up, down, or stays flat.
