i need to find out the 'slope-intercept form of the equation of the line.'
could you tell me where a GREAT website is, that an 8th grader can understand?
Thanks!

If you have the equation of the line, you have the slope and the intercept. Let's say your line's equation is:
y = 5x + 2
Then, 5 is the slope of the line and 2 is the intercept of the line with the y-axis (ordinate).
For a line with the equation
y = 3x - 8
3 is the slope and -8 is the intercept.

Just remember the equation y=mx+b. m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
Here's a website that may help.

Also, just try typing in "slope intercept graphing" on yahoo or google, and many websites will come up.

Y = mX + B
