Which graph shows the equation of the line y = -3x - 3? http://www.intervisualtechnology.us/data/1/12885/u5l4q5responses.JPG

The link opens choices. Please help I am confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well the slope is going to be negative, since it's "-3x" so we can eliminate b. Now what point will you get if you put in 0 for x? In other words, what's the y-intercept?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is the part that confuses me is the y intercept so sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Put in 0 for x. What do you get for y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y is -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Exactly. So what graph hits the point (0,-3)?
