Question

Whar is the y-intercept of a line that has a slope of 1/4 and passes through point (8, 3)​

Answer 1

Answer:

y = a*x + b

a is the slope and b is the y-intercept (at x=0)

is the general formula.

let's plug in the x and y information of the point, and slope.

3 = 1/4 * 8 + b

that seems like we can solve for b

3 = 2 + b

1 = b

the y-intercept is at (0,1)
