What is the slope (gradient) of
5y-9x+6y+3x-7-8
Get Eq. 1 into y = mx + b format:
3x + 6y - 8 = 0
6y = -3x + 8
Divide each side by 6
| 6y |
| 6 |
| = |
| -3x + 8 |
| 6 |
Simplifying, we have:
y = -0.5x + 1.3333333333333
Final Answer
Slope = -0.5
Calculate the y intercept of our line
The y intercept is found by
Setting x = 0 in
y=-0.5(0)+1.3333333333333
y-intercept = 0+1.3333333333333
y-intercept = +1.3333333333333

What 3 formulas are used for the 2 Lines Intersection Calculator?
Lines are parallel when they have the same slope.
Lines are perpendicular when they have slopes which are negative reciprocals.
For a line y = mx + b, m is the slope
Lines are perpendicular when they have slopes which are negative reciprocals.
For a line y = mx + b, m is the slope
What 6 concepts are covered in the 2 Lines Intersection Calculator?
