@AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

are u familiar with slope-intercept form @TeenWolfGirl

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a bit i don't get them though

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

\[y=mx+b\] m is slope b is y-intercept (which means when u graph the eqn the line will hit the y-axis at that point ) confused?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am following you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so far so good

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

|dw:1419887675377:dw|

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

|dw:1419887710405:dw| so what is our y-intercept for the given eqn?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i believe me answer is A

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

is the slope positive or negative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

negative sorry didn't look at that

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

correct which answer choices have y-intercept of 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

there is another one too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

|dw:1419888212644:dw| the line should look like that b/c the line should go down since the slope is negative and hit the y-axis at 3 got it ? and if u look closely at D it satisfies our condition do u see that @TeenWolfGirl
