Answer:

-3 is the value of the location where the line crosses the y-axis,and is commonly referred in the slope-intercept form of a line "the intercept". Now it may be your teacher expects you to answer this as the point on the plane where the y-intercept occurs, and that should be the point (0, -3). Make sure you follow your teacher's notation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Re-write the equation given in slope=intercept form by isolating the variable "y" on one side of the equation and expressing the rest in slope*x + y-intercet form:

-2y-4x-6=0\\-4x-6=2y\\y=-2x-3\\

which tells us that the slope of the line is -2 and it y-intercept is "-3".

Now, watch out because you may be asked to write the actual coordinates of the y-intercept, which are: (0, -3)

giving the x-coordinate 0 and the y-value where the line crosses the y-axis.

Answer:

-3.

Step-by-step explanation:

-2y - 4x - 6 = 0

-2y = 4x + 6

y = -2x - 3

So, the y-intercept is (0, -3).

Hope this helps!

Any times you see the phrase: "Rate of Change", or even sometimes just the word "Rate" think slope. 

The word slope is just a fancy word that means the rate of change. 

Rate of Change is just a fancy phrase meaning how much does something change over some amount of time. 
So in this case our rate of change will have the units of inches per year. 

Let's get to the problem at hand! 
We'll need to find slope / the rate of change (the two are interchangeable with each other).
Let's go over the formula for slope:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) 

First we will need to label each of the "coordinated points (the two numbers that go together in a pair)" with either (x1,y1) or (x2,y2). 

A Giant Red Oak's diameter in 1965 was 248 inches. Keep in mind time is ALWAYS going to be X in rate of change problems (and most all problems for that matter).  

(1965,248) 
(X1,Y2)

(2005,251)
(X2,Y2)

Plug in the values into the equation!
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (251 - 248) / (2005 - 1965) 
m = (3) / (40)

Type that into a calculator to get a decimal value over 1.
m = 0.075 inches per 1 year. 
Or... 

m = 0.075in / 1 year
