1 Brush salmon fillets on both sides with 1/4 cup butter, and sprinkle evenly with the cayenne pepper mixture. 2  Drizzle one side of each fillet with 1/2 remaining butter. 3  In a large, heavy skillet over high heat, cook salmon, butter side down, until blackened, 2 to 5 minutes.

The intercept (often labeled the constant) is the expected mean value of Y when all X=0. Start with a regression equation with one predictor, X. If X sometimes = 0, the intercept is simply the expected mean value of Y at that value. If X never = 0, then the intercept has no intrinsic meaning. In scientific research, the purpose of a regression model is to understand the relationship between predictors and the response. If so, and if X never = 0, there is no interest in the intercept.
Examples. 1  y = 5x + 3 is an example of the Slope Intercept Form and represents the equation of a line with a slope of 5 and and a y-intercept of 3. 2  y = â2x + 6 represents the equation of a line with a slope of â2 and and a y-intercept of 6.orizontal Lines. The equation of a horizontal line is y = b where b is the y-intercept. Since the slope of a horizontal line is 0, the general formula for the standard form equation, y = mx + b becomes y = 0x +b y = b. Also,since the line is horizontal, every point on that line has the exact same y value.
