Find the slope and -intercept of the line
Find the slope and \( y \) -intercept of the line \( \boldsymbol{x}-\boldsymbol{y}=\mathbf{3} \)
- A. slope \( =2, y \) -intercept \( =-3 \)
- B. slope \( =0, y \) -intercept \( =-3 \)
- C. slope \( =1, y \) -intercept \( =-3 \)
- D. slope \( =1, y \) -intercept \( =3 \)
Step-by-step solution
Rewrite the equation x - y = 3 in slope-intercept form y = mx + b. Subtract x from both sides: -y = -x + 3. Multiply by -1: y = x - 3. Thus slope m = 1 and y-intercept b = -3.
