Solution

Slope-intercept form, $y = m x + b$ , of linear equations, emphasizes the slope and the y-intercept of the line.
Given the equation
$y - 1 = 3 x + 8.4 y = 3 x + 8.4 + 1 y = 3 x + 9.4$
Slope = 3 and y – intercept = 9.4
Hence, the slope = 3 and the y-intercept = 9.4 of the graph of the given linear equation.
