Help:) I would like a walkthrough plz!! No direct answer! Medal+Fan!! A line has a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of (0, -4). What is the value of y when x = 6?

OpenStudy (igreen):

Make an equation first.

OpenStudy (igreen):

\(\sf y = mx + b\) Where 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the y-intercept.

OpenStudy (igreen):

We are given: Slope of 2, y-intercept of -4

OpenStudy (igreen):

Can you plug those numbers in?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y=2x-4\] @iGreen

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes! Now plug in 6 for 'x' into that equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would i just plug 6 in as \[y=2(6)-4\]

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yep, you got it, now simplify.
