Question

What is the y-intercept of a line that has a slope of 1 and passes through point (5, 3)

Answer 1

2 - value form

(0,2) - Coordinate form

Explanation:

Using point slope form, we can find the equation for the line in slope intercept form.

Slope (m) = 1

x1 = 5

y1 = 3

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-3=1(x-5)

y-3=x-5

y=x-2

Our y-intercept is -2 (b value in slope intercept).
