Algebra.Com's Answer #121484 by MRperkins(300)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The first thing you need to know is what slope intercept form is. \n" ); document.write( "So slope intercept form is: y=mx+b \n" ); document.write( "where (x,y) is a given point; m=slope; b=the y-intercept \n" ); document.write( "So, substitute your values into the equation and you get \n" ); document.write( " y = m x +b \n" ); document.write( "(3)=(-6)(3)+b \n" ); document.write( "now solve for b \n" ); document.write( "3=-18+b \n" ); document.write( "add 18 to both sides and you get \n" ); document.write( "21=b \n" ); document.write( "Now that you know the value of b you are able to plug this into the slope-intercept formula \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "you will need to know how to do this problem throughout your education so make sure you understand this very well. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Feedback is appreciated. \n" ); document.write( "PayPal donations accepted through justin.sheppard.tech@hotmail.com \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
