Answer:
h = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, I got you.
To begin, everyone knows that y = mx + b is the equation for any slope-intercept form problem.
y = the y - value of a point
m = the slope
x = the x - value of a point
b = the y - intercept (or where the line starts)
So, you are given the slope, and you're given the y - value. But, you don't have the x - value in the second point.
That mean's you're going to have to use the first point, because you're given both the x and y values, to find the y - intercept.
Simply, plug in the y and x values where they belong.
2 = 6 (-1) + b
(Remember the 6 is the slope)
Now, solve for b.
2 = -6 + b
8 = b
Now, you know the y - intercept.
So, you can find the value of h in the second point. Since you don't know the x - value, plug in what you do know and solve for y.
So...
8 = 6 (x) + 8
(Remember 6 is the slope and 8 is the y - intercept)
Now, solve for x.
8 = 6x + 8
0 = 6x
0 = x
The value of h is 0.
I hope this helps :)
