To identify the slope and y-intercept from the equation \( y - 5 = -3x \), we can rearrange it into the slope-intercept form \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept.
Starting with the equation:
\[ y - 5 = -3x \]
Add 5 to both sides:
\[ y = -3x + 5 \]
From this, we can see that:
- Slope (\(m\)) = -3
- y-intercept (\(b\)) = 5
Now, for the y-intercept:
b: 5
