Answer:
The y-intercept is 3 aka. (0,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is 1 (since (6-4)/(3-1)=2/2=1)
y=1x+b
4=1+b
3=b
Hi, this is the notation for inclusion of all real
numbers.
We can also state numbers which are positive or negative with a sign on top of the R notation like so:
Equation 1: y = -2x + 1
Equation 2: y = 2x - 3
Since both equations already have y isolated, we are able to simply set the right side of both equations equal to each other. Since we know that the value of y must be the same, we can do this.
-2x + 1 = 2x - 3
1 = 4x - 3
4 = 4x
x = 1
Then, we need to plug our value of x back into either of the original two equations and solve for y. I will be plugging x back into equation 2 above.
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(1) - 3
y = 2 - 3
y = -1
Hope this helps!! :)
