=/? explain?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what doesnt make sense? the linear equation, or the intercept?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

incerpt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first off for an explination what math are you in? do you understand functions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so y is a function of x, where if you input an x value it gives you a y. for y=mx+b, m in a linear equation is the slope. x is the input of x values. and b is the y intercept. this can be proven for yours becaus eif you input, 0 for x. that means the function is at origin if you y intercept was 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

while the y intercept is the value at which the function crosses the y axis, the vertical one.
