This document provides examples of how to interpret slope and y-intercept in real-world contexts. It defines slope as the rate of change and y-intercept as the value of y when x is zero. Examples given include using slope to show the growth rate of a tree over time, and using the y-intercept to represent an initial debt amount before payments are made. It also works through an example of using slope-intercept form to model the melting of an ice cream cone over time and calculate how tall it would be after 3 minutes.
