Answer:

h = 0

Explanation:

Ok, I got you.

To begin, everyone knows that y = mx + b is the equation for any slope-intercept form problem.

y = the y - value of a point

m = the slope

x = the x - value of a point

b = the y - intercept (or where the line starts)

So, you are given the slope, and you're given the y - value. But, you don't have the x - value in the second point.

That mean's you're going to have to use the first point, because you're given both the x and y values, to find the y - intercept.

Simply, plug in the y and x values where they belong.

2 = 6 (-1) + b

(Remember the 6 is the slope)

Now, solve for b.

2 = -6 + b

8 = b

Now, you know the y - intercept.

So, you can find the value of h in the second point. Since you don't know the x - value, plug in what you do know and solve for y.

So...

8 = 6 (x) + 8

(Remember 6 is the slope and 8 is the y - intercept)

Now, solve for x.

8 = 6x + 8

0 = 6x

0 = x

The value of h is 0.

I hope this helps :)
