In the linear equation y = mx + b, y-intercept represents the value of y. It is the point where the line crosses the y-axis(vertical axis)

Finding the y-intercept is done by looking at which point in the graph crosses the y-axis. This point will always have an x-coordinate of zero(0).

A carpenter charges $720 for 18 hours of work. She charges the same amount of money for each hour of work.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off, you know 18 hours= 720

So you could automatically get rid of B and D since 19 and 17 are not 18.

After that, you have it down to A and C. The way you would find how much she charges for one hour is dividing 720 by 18. When you do that it means you are divding 720$ into 18 different groups each group representing an hour. When you divide 720 by 18 you should get 40. So every hour she makes 40 dollars. 40x 2 hours is 80. I hope I helped you!

Which equation, when solved, results in a different value of x than the other three?
kicyunya [14]
I would have to say -7(1/8)x-4/3=20.


The first and the second one both result in
-23 5/7

The last one results in -24 8/21

but the third one is -22 3/8.

So your answer is either the third of the last one. I assumed the third because, it is lower than all others and the first two are closer to 24 than they are to 22. It’s your choice on how to judge it.
