The equation you provided is in the slope-intercept form, which is generally written as:

\[ y = mx + b \]

where:

  • \( m \) is the slope,
  • \( b \) is the y-intercept.

In the equation \( y = 38x - 9 \):

  • The slope (\( m \)) is 38.
  • The y-intercept (\( b \)) is -9.

So, the slope is 38, and the y-intercept is -9.

Identify the slope and y-intercept of the graph of the equation y=3/8x−9
.

The equation you provided is also in the slope-intercept form:

\[ y = mx + b \]

where:

  • \( m \) is the slope,
  • \( b \) is the y-intercept.

For the equation \( y = \frac{3}{8}x - 9 \):

  • The slope (\( m \)) is \( \frac{3}{8} \).
  • The y-intercept (\( b \)) is -9.

Thus, the slope is \( \frac{3}{8} \), and the y-intercept is -9.
