Question

What is the value if the y-intercept of a line that passes through the points (3,-2) and has a slope of 4

Answer 1

Answer:

the y-intercept is -14

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the y intercept, you need to get the b from y = mx + b

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

m = 4

(x₁,y₁) = (3,-2)

y - (-2) = (4) (x - (3))

y + 2 = 4x - 12

y + 2 - 2 = 4x - 12 - 2

y = 4x - 14

y = mx  + b

b = -14
