I hope you can do it with points.
OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):
Seems doable:D
OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):
Okay so recall that the y-intercept is when x=0...
Based on the set of points given (x,y)
What is the y-intercept?
OpenStudy (shirleyarnett):
y=4500
OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):
Yep... do you know the units?
