Let's look at our equation. It written in the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope, therefore, is 1 and the y-intercept is -3.

"slope "=1," y-intercept "=-3

Explanation:

"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form" is.

•color(white)(x)y=mx+b

"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"

y=x-3" is in this form"

"with slope "=1" and y-intercept "=-3
