Given the equation y = 2x - 8, what is the slope and the y-intercept? A.) m = 8 and b = 2 B.) m = 2 and b = 8 C.) m = 2 and b = -8 D.) m = -8 and b = 2

C.) m = 2 and b = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally:

In an equation of the form y = mx + b

the slope is m

the y-intercept is b

In our equation y = 2x - 8 = 2x + (-8)

then

m = 2  and  b = -8

a function could be identified in 3 ways either on a chart,graph, or ordered pairs. first a function is that each point has its own. the rule is that there can be many x's to one y but there can not be 2 x's at different y's. so on a graph when you put a straight line through the y's there should be one dot only to be a function.
