Question

What is the initial value of y= 8x+7

Answer 1

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value is another name for the y-intercept. This equation is written in point slope form (y=mx+b). And before you think y-intercept means y, right? No that is incorrect, I got that wrong in the beginning too ;)

y=mx+b

y=8x+7

b in the point slope form equation is always the initial value or y-intercept or whatever people call it. So what substitutes b out here? 7. So 7 is the initial value!

:) Hope you understand now! Have a good day!
