Let's look at our equation. It written in the form y=mx+by=mx+b, where mm is the slope and bb is the y-intercept. The slope, therefore, is 11 and the y-intercept is -3−3.

"slope "=1," y-intercept "=-3slope =1, y-intercept =−3

Explanation:

"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is.

•color(white)(x)y=mx+b∙xy=mx+b

"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept

y=x-3" is in this form"y=x−3 is in this form

"with slope "=1" and y-intercept "=-3with slope =1 and y-intercept =−3
