Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can plug all the given values into the equation y=mx+b. This is called slope-intercept form. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. To find the y-intercept, we solve for b.

y=mx+b

1=2(3)+b

1=6+b

Subtract both sides by 6

1-6=6+b-6

-5=b

Therefore, the y-intercept is -5.

Solve for x.<br> Worth 20 pts.

Vinvika [58]

You’d set up a proportion. I did 25/15=7x-40/18.
Then you would cross multiply to get 15(7x-40)=450
Distribute the 15.
105x-600=450
Add 600 to both sides, so the -600 cancels out.
Then you’re left with 105x=1050
Divide both sides by 105 and you get x=10
