Ken, a meteorologist, is predicting next year’s temperatures in New York City. He predicts that, in August, the average low temperature will be 20°C, and that the temperature will drop by 4°C in September.
Use the number line interactive tool to determine Ken’s temperature prediction for September.

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is

answer is b.

i got this one as well.

this equation is in point-slope form.

where,

using this equation you can gather a point and the slope, which gives you enough information to draw a line. transform the equation to standard form to start.

the equation is now in standard form, we have a point, as well as the slope:

point: (0, -6)

slope: -2

plot (0,-6), then simply rise/run with the provided slope of -2, once you feel you have a comfortable amount of points - draw a line.
