Vocaloid:

ok, what did you get as the equation though?

zarkam21:

well I got m=1.88246 and b=1.64552

Vocaloid:

good now take the y-intercept and round to the nearest 10th

zarkam21:

um what is the y intercept again

Vocaloid:

y = mx + b

Vocaloid:

when x = 0 what does y = ?

zarkam21:

0?

Vocaloid:

y = m(0) + b y = ?

zarkam21:

b

Vocaloid:

good so the y-intercept is b

Vocaloid:

now take your value for b and round to the nearest 10th

zarkam21:

1.65

Vocaloid:

nearest 10th not nearest 100th

zarkam21:

1.6

Vocaloid:

good that's your answer
