How do you find the slope and y intercept for $y = (- \frac{3}{5}) + (\frac{3}{5}) x$ $y=(-3/5)+(3/5)x$ ?

Slope $= \frac{3}{5}$ $=3/5$ ; y intercept $= (- \frac{3}{5})$ $=(-3/5)$

Explanation:

The standard slope intercept form is $y = m x + b$ $y=color(red)(m)x+color(blue)(b)$ where $m$ $color(red)(m)$ is the slope and $b$ $color(blue)(b)$ is the y intercept.

$y = (- \frac{3}{5}) + (\frac{3}{5}) x$ $y = (-3/5) + (3/5)x$

$\Rightarrow$ $rArr$ $XXXX$ $color(white)("XXXX")$ $y = (\frac{3}{5}) x + (- \frac{3}{5})$ $y = color(red)((3/5))x + color(blue)((-3/5))$
