Expression/Equation ⇒ y = 8x

What is the slope? ⇒ 8

What is the y-intercept? ⇒ zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Meat costs $8.00 per pound at a store.

Let the number of pounds = x, and the total cost = y

So, the equation which represents the given situation is ⇒ y = mx

Where m is the slope.

If x = 1 pound , the meat costs = y = $8

So, y = 8x

The table can created by let values for x and find the values of y.

The attached table represents the table and the graph of y = 8x

The slope = 8

y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0

so, the y-intercept = 0

the answer is 8.64
