Question

What is the y- intercept of the line that passes through the points (-8, -13) and (-6,-3)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

Explanation:

First lets find the slope.

-3+13/-6+8 = 10/2 = 5

y = 5x+b

Now implement one of the points:

-3 = 5(-6)+b

-3 = -30 +b

27 = b

So the y intercept would be (0,27)
