Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf{b=55\:(b=y-intercept\:;)}}

Explanation:

Hello.

The y-intercept of a line is a point where the graph touches the y-axis.

Y-intercepts always have an x-coordinate of 0.

Now, what is the y-intercept?

If we have a point (0, b) then b is the y-intercept.

This is just a formula, so don't think that the y-intercept is b, okay?

The y-intercept is b, but only in formulae. :)

Using the formula, we can deduce that

the y-intercept is 55.

I hope it helps.

Have a great day.
