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?
Slope = ( -2-6) / ( -4 - -2) = -8/ -2 = 4
Eq of line using (-2 , 6)
y = 4 ( x - - 2) + 6
y = 4 ( x + 2) + 6
y = 4x + 8 + 6
y = 4x + 14
To find the y int...let x = 0
y = 4(0) + 14
y = 14 = the y intercept
