The student will enter the [b]slope[/b] and [b]y-intercept[/b] by solving for y with the equation of the form: [b]a x + b y = c[/b].[br][br]The linear equation [b]slope-intercept form[/b] is [b]y = m x + b[/b].[br][br]When is there no y-intercept?[br]When is the slope undefined?

When slope is [b]m = 0[/b], you may not be able to enter the correct y-value, b, for the intercept. {This is a limitation of computer programs due to round-off errors.} [br][br]When the slope is undefined, there is no y-intercept.[br][br]Activity requested by Dr. R. Balotro.
