Bot GPT 3.5 To change the slope 1/5 into an intercept number, we need to determine the intercept on the y-axis (also known as the y-intercept). The y-intercept represents the value of y when x is equal to zero.
In this case, the slope is 1/5, which means that for every increase of 1 in the x-coordinate, the y-coordinate increases by 1/5. To find the y-intercept, we can set x equal to zero and solve for y.
When x = 0, the equation becomes y = (1/5)(0). Any number multiplied by zero is equal to zero. Therefore, the y-intercept is 0.
So, the slope 1/5 changed back into intercept numbers is a y-intercept of 0.
