Question 285952
y = 30x +8000
.
This equation is in slope-intercept form:  y = mx+b.  So,
.
m = slope = 30, which is a very steep slope indeed
b = y-intercept = 8000, which is the point (0, 8000)
.
x-intercept is where y=0
.
0 = 30x + 8000
x = -8000/30 = -800/3 = -266 2/3, which is the point (-266 2/3, 0).
