slope= Gradient = (9/7)
y-intercepts = 8
x- intercept = 56/9

Explanation:

The linear function is given in the form:

y = mx + c
where m is the slope/gradient, c is the y intercept.

Hence
slope= Gradient = (9/7)
y-intercepts = 8

To find the x-intercept, let y = 0,
y= 9/7x + 8
0 = 9/7x + 8
x = ((-8)*7)/9
x= 56/9
