what does y intercept mean ?

dqswag · Answer

The Meaning of Slope and y-Intercept. in the Context of Word Problems. In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept, where the line crosses the y-axis.
