To identify the slope and y-intercept of each equation, we need to express them in the slope-intercept form, which is written as:

\[ y = mx + b \]

where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept.

Here are the equations you've provided:

  1. Equation: \( y = -8x + 9 \)

    • Slope (m): -8
    • y-intercept (b): 9
  2. Equation: \( y = -4x - 1 \)

    • Slope (m): -4
    • y-intercept (b): -1
  3. Equation: \( y = 10x - 3 \)

    • Slope (m): 10
    • y-intercept (b): -3
  4. Equation: \( y = 3x - 7 \)

    • Slope (m): 3
    • y-intercept (b): -7
  5. Equation: \( y = 4x + 5 \)

    • Slope (m): 4
    • y-intercept (b): 5
  6. Equation: \( y = -8x - 2 \)

    • Slope (m): -8
    • y-intercept (b): -2
  7. Equation: \( y = x - 6 \)

    • Slope (m): 1 (since \( 1 \) is the coefficient of \( x \))
    • y-intercept (b): -6
  8. Equation: \( y = -9x + 5 \)

    • Slope (m): -9
    • y-intercept (b): 5
  9. Equation: \( y = -3x + 8 \)

    • Slope (m): -3
    • y-intercept (b): 8
  10. Equation: \( y = 7x + 4 \)

  • Slope (m): 7
  • y-intercept (b): 4
  1. Equation: \( y = -2y - y \)
  • First, simplify: \[ y = -3y \implies 4y = 0 \implies y = 0 \]
  • This is a horizontal line at \( y = 0 \).
  • Slope (m): 0
  • y-intercept (b): 0
  1. Equation: \( y = 6x + 13 \)
  • Slope (m): 6
  • y-intercept (b): 13

In summary, here are the slopes and y-intercepts:

  1. Slope: -8, y-intercept: 9
  2. Slope: -4, y-intercept: -1
  3. Slope: 10, y-intercept: -3
  4. Slope: 3, y-intercept: -7
  5. Slope: 4, y-intercept: 5
  6. Slope: -8, y-intercept: -2
  7. Slope: 1, y-intercept: -6
  8. Slope: -9, y-intercept: 5
  9. Slope: -3, y-intercept: 8
  10. Slope: 7, y-intercept: 4
  11. Slope: 0, y-intercept: 0
  12. Slope: 6, y-intercept: 13
