Question

This table gives a few (x,y) pairs of a line in the coordinate plane. What is the y-intercept of the line? (full problem attached)

Answer 1

The answer is (0,34)

Answer 2

(0,34)

Explanation:

For each rise of 14 in the x direction, this graph rises by -8 in the y direction. This means that, when x is 0, and the graph intersects the y axis, the y value will be 50-8-8=34. Therefore, the y intercept of this line is (0,34). Hope this helps!
