Answer:

We can determine the slope m and the y-intercept of the linear function when the linear equation y = -3/5x -2 is written in slope-intercept form.

Thus, we concluded that:

  • The y-intercept b = -2
  • The slope m = -3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the linear/line function

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given that the linear function is represented by the equation

[tex]y\:=\:-\frac{3}{5}x\:-2[/tex]

comparing with the slope-intercept form of the linear/line equation

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Therefore,

  • The slope m = -3/5
  • The y-intercept b = -2

Hence, we can determine the slope m and the y-intercept of the linear function when the linear equation y = -3/5x -2 is written in slope-intercept form.

Thus, we concluded that:

  • The y-intercept b = -2
  • The slope m = -3/5
