you are given the equation in point-slope form which is this:
\[y=mx+b\]
in this form, m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
Given that information do you know which graph it is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry it's called slope intercept form my bad/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
idk
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well do you know what a slope is?
Still Need Help?

yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
alright do you know what I mean by y-intercept?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
alright so given that the y-intercept is -4 what answer choices can you eliminate?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a and d?

can you tell me what it means by y-intercept?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The Y-Intercept of a line is the point where a line's graph intersects the Y-axis.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes so do you wish to change your answer of eliminating answer choices a and d?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you mean?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hmmm I mean that while answer choice a's y-intercept is not -4, answer choice d's y-intercept is. Do you see that?
