2x-3/4

anonymous · Answer

Solve for y   y = 2x -3/4   2 is the slope, the y intercept is -3/4

anonymous · Answer

yep

anonymous · Answer

So! Let's use substitution once more to find the correct answer. Please tell me, what value of x does the y-intercept occur at?

Haha my blonde hair is affecting my brain right now. Can you re-word that? @IParke

anonymous · Answer

Haha. The y-intercept occurs when the line crosses the y axis, correct? So, where on the x axis does that line cross? It's always the same, hint hint.
