y intercept is located at the end of the equation:  -10

amistre64 · Answer

the difference between the options left is x=2; so try it out in the equation and see if it fits .... if not, pick the other one

amistre64 · Answer

doing mutliple choice/tests isnt about working thru the steps; its about fitting the answer into the question :)
