Find the y-intercept of the following equation. Simplify your answer. y = 4x + 4

y-intercept

The slope is 4 and the y intercept is 4

(0,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is in the form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 4x+4

The slope is 4 and the y intercept is 4

(0,4)

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
