Find the Slope and y-intercept 3x+y=-2

$3 x + y = - 2$

Step 1

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Subtract $3 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$y = - 2 - 3 x$

Reorder $- 2$ and $- 3 x$ .

$y = - 3 x - 2$

Step 2

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Find the values of $m$ and $b$ using the form $y = m x + b$ .

$m = - 3$

$b = - 2$

The slope of the line is the value of $m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of $b$ .

Slope: $- 3$

y-intercept: $(0, - 2)$

Slope: $- 3$

y-intercept: $(0, - 2)$
