1. y = 4x + 8
Slope: 4
y-intercept: 8
2. y = (1/2)x - 1
Slope: 1/2
y-intercept: -1
3. -7x = 14 - 9y
Rearranged: 9y = 7x + 14 → y = (7/9)x + 14/9
Slope: 7/9
y-intercept: 14/9
4. y = (3/2)x + 3
Slope: 3/2
y-intercept: 3
5. y + 4(x - 3) = 11
Simplify: y + 4x - 12 = 11 → y = -4x + 23
Slope: -4
y-intercept: 23
6. 6x + 5y + 8 = 0
Rearranged: 5y = -6x - 8 → y = (-6/5)x - 8/5
Slope: -6/5
y-intercept: -8/5
7. y = 6x + 16
Slope: 6
y-intercept: 16
8. y = 6x + 7/2
Slope: 6
y-intercept: 7/2
9. y = x - 14
Slope: 1
y-intercept: -14
10. 1/2 = x + (3y)/5
Rearranged: (3y)/5 = -x + 1/2 → 3y = -5x + 5/2 → y = (-5/3)x + 5/6
Slope: -5/3
y-intercept: 5/6
