Practice makes perfect
Equations in slope-intercept form follow a specific format, where m represents the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

y= mx+ b The given equation is already in this form. Below we have highlighted the slope m and y-intercept b. y= 1/2x+ 7 We can see that the slope of the graph is 12.
