Line cd passes through points c(1, 3) and d(4, –3). if the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, what is the value of b?
–5
–2
1
5

option D is correct

b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Line CD passes through points C(1, 3) and D(4, –3).

Find slope CD(m):

Formula for slope:

Substitute the given points we have;

then;

Substitute the point (1, 3)  to solve for b;

3 = -2(1) +b

3 = -2+b

Add 2 to both sides we have;

5= b

or

b = 5

An equation of line CD in slope-intercept form is;

Therefore, the value of b is, 5

answer: the dogs need to shift their focus to human scent.

its because the dogs being trained are for search and rescue thus they need to be able to track humans and their specific scent
