Question

A line has a slope of 8 and crosses the y-axis at (0,12). Express this line in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

I think the answer is y = 8x + 12

Answer 2

y = 8x + 12

Explanation:

The equation for all linear equations (slope-intercept form) is y = mx + b where m = slope and b = the y-intercept.

According to the information given, the slope is 8, and the y-intercept is 12. The y-intercept is 12 because the line touches the y-axis at (0,12).

Hope it helps!
