what is the y-intercept of the graph

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so the equation will go from y = mx+b to y = mx+1

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

so its b ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that means that you can rule out choices C and D because they have y-intercepts of -1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what makes you say B

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

its b becauseof the slope ? its positive

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yep, the line slopes upward (as you read it from left to right) so it has a positive slope

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

only B (out of A and B) has a positive slope, so you got it
