where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can solve this by just looking at the y-intercept (where the line crosses the vertical axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = −2x + 13 has a y-int of 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or graph and look where the 2 lines cross

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = 2x − 3 has a y-int of -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do you think the answer is?
