Because the slope doesn't tell you any actual points on the line. 
It only tells you whether the line tilts up or down, and how steeply. 
But the line could be way up there or way down under, with the same slope.
You can't actually DRAW it until you know some point on it, and
   the y-intercept gives you one.

White raven [17]

Stan's, Mark's and Wayne's ages are 35 , 36 and 37 years respectively.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Stan's, Mark's and Wayne's ages are <u>consecutive whole numbers</u> and Stan is the youngest and Wayne is the oldest.

So, lets assume that Stan's, Mark's and Wayne's ages are  n, n+1 and n+2

Given that, the sum of their ages is 108. So, the equation will be.....

n+(n+1)+(n+2)=108\\ \\ 3n+3=108\\ \\ 3n=108-3=105\\ \\ n=\frac{105}{3}=35

So, Stan's age is 35 years , Mark's age is (35+1)= 36 years and Wayne's age is (35+2)= 37 years.
