SOLUTION: graph the equation and identify the y intercept: y+x=-10

Question 147907: graph the equation and identify the y intercept:
y+x=-10

Answer by mangopeeler07(462) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

First get the equation into y=mx+b form. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. So solve the original equation for y. you should have gotten . Therefore -10 is the y-intercept. It is also known as whatever y is when x is zero. So you already know that one coordinate of this line is (0,-10), because that is the y intercept. To get points on the line, just plug in a value for x and see what you get for y. For example, one point on this line would be (1,-11) and another would be (4,-14).
