welshfella · Answer

the standard slope/intercept equation of a line is
   y = mx + b   where m = slope and b = intercept on the y-axis

welshfella · Answer

here m = -2  and the intercept point is ( 0,3)
so what is the value for b?

I got the answer thanx for the help!

welshfella · Answer

b  is the y coordinate of the point of interception
