Question

Find the slope and y-intercept of the graph of the equation y = 4x + 1

Answer 1

We can see that the slope(m) equals 4 and the y-intercept is in the point (0, 1).

***

When you have a linear function of the form:

$y=mx+b$

You will have that m represent the slope and b will represent the y-intercept, in our case the function is:

$y=4x+1$

We can see that the slope(m) is then 4 and the y-intercept(b) is 1.
