Question

8. Find the y-intercept of a line with a slope of 1/4 and going through the point
(-4,4).​

Answer 1

(0, 5)

Explanation:

Equation for a linear line in y=mx+b is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

x1 = -4

y1 = 4

m = 1/4

y-4 = 1/4 (x--4)

y-4= 1/4 (x+4)

y-4 = 1/4x + 1

y = 1/4x + 5

When x=0, y=5 making 5 your y intercept.
