A line is drawn through the points (-2,6) and (-4,-2). What is the y-coordinate of the point where this line intersects the y-axis?
EP's
slope = y1-y2 / x1-x2
= 6- -2 / -2- -4
=8 / 2 =4
y=mx+b form
y = 4x + b Sub in one of the points to find b
6 = 4(-2) + b
b = 14
y = 4x+14 when x = 0 b is the y intercept = 14
nerdiest, do you like to take it up the \(\text{as} \text{s}\)?
