y=mx+b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y = mx + b
Where 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the y-intercept.

So plug in '3' for 'm' and '-2' for 'b' and you have your equation.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The equation is y = mx + b where m is slope and b is y-intercept, so can you figure out the answer by plugging in the values in the question? @lolcat

so A

Yep!
OpenStudy (luigi0210):
Also, y-intercept is when x=0 :P
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes, the answer is A! Great job! :)

Or just where the line touches the y-axis. @Luigi0210
