This is easy.

y = mx + b

'b' is the y-intercept

Answer 3

-14 which is (0,-14) i make it seem hard when i read it lol sorry but thx

Answer 4

Yep, you got it.

Answer 5

one more question. say a line has a slope of 2/5. What is the other lines slope if it is perpendicular? @iGreen

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

Answer 7

So we would flip the numerator and denominator and multiply by -1.
