Given:
The line passes through (-3,-6) and (2,-2).
To find:
The equation of line.
Solution:
If a line passes through two points 
, then the equation of line is
The line passes through (-3,-6) and (2,-2). So, the equation of line is
Subtract 6 from both sides.
Therefore, the equation of line is .
The answer is sixteen thousand four hundred ninety
This is in slope-intercept form, so you can think of it as being y=mx+b. Invert m (the slope) and flip its sign, and then substitute the x and y values in and solve for b. The answer is y=7/2x-20.
15; it represents the one-time sign-up fee
The y-intercept can be found either on the graph where the line intercepts the y-axis, or b in the equation y=mx+b.
It represents the fee because it will be charged even if the number of months (x) is zero. 10 is the monthly fee because it is multiplied by x, the number of months.
