Answer:

y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

[ y = mx + b ] represents slope-intercept form where m = slope and b = y-intercept. Whenever we want to put values into this form, we can solve for the slope of two given points and solve for the y-intercept using the slope and one point.

Best of Luck!

How do you estimate 1,374×6

san4es73 [151]

The best estimate for 1,374 is 1,400 and the best estimate for 6 is 10. This is because anything that is 5 and above you change it. Example: 16 the best estimate for 16 is 20 because 6 is above 5. And when a number is 4 and below you change the number below. Example: 12 the best estimate for 12 is 10 because 2 is below 4. And when the number is perfect like 10, you can keep the number the same. Example:10,20,30,40,50,60etc.
Hope this Helped! :)

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point 4, -6 and has a slope of -3

zheka24 [161]

Y = mx + b. Use this equation for most linear functions. Enter the information that is given to you.
$- 6 = - 3(4) + b$
Multiply the -3 and 4 to get 12.
$-6 = - 12 + b$
Now divide the -12 from both sides.
$\frac{ - 6}{ - 12} = \frac{ - 12}{ - 12} + b$
-12 cancels out on the right side and your left with
$- \frac {1}{2} = b$
Now re-enter the info back into the formula.
$y = - 3x - \frac{1}{2}$
Then you've got your formula
