About Y-Intercept:

Y - intercept is part of an ordered pair. The y-intercept is the 2nd number in an ordered pair. Like, for example, (3,5)... 3 is the x - intercept & 5 is the y -intercept. Y-intercept is a point on the line & is also known as the starting point. Y - intercepts can be used in 4 different forms: Standard Form, Slope -Intercept Form, Point Slop Form, and this form (<u>Y2 - Y1</u>)

                                                                                   X2 - X1

Hope this info helps!!! :)

Y-intercept, it can be described as y-intercept form, or another way of writing it in mathematical form is y=mx+b, this can be used to draw polygons, find ortho-centers (very difficult), etc. m is the rise/run, rise over run, or 1/2.  The rise and the run is the rate of change.  b is the starting point or slope where it starts at, that is most of it!

Will the product be more or less than 9 8/9
solniwko [45]
It would be less because when you multiply something by 1/2 you are basically dividing it by 2, finding half. So when you multiply 9 8/9 by 1/2 your product would be less than 9 8/9
