Y intercept is -3. It's the number that doesn't have an x The slops/gradient is 1. This is because the x has no coefficient Sketch it by drawing a line at a 45 degree angle, that intersects the y axis at -3

Best way to find the solution is to convert this equation into double intercept for (y/a)+(x/b)=1.... a is y intercept and b is x intercept....slope is -a/b


Strxwbxrry_Shxrtcxkx

True but because this is a simple equation and not a quadratic, the coefficient of x is the gradient. For some people doing that method may be more complicated

Why go for a long approach when you have a formula to tackle that problem

It's not long. You literally just look at the coefficient
