Aline passes through the points (1, –6) and (4, 3).

what is the y-intercept of this line?
a.-9
b.-3
c.3
d.9

A. -9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line passes through the points and is,

Thus, the equation of the line passes through the points (1, –6) and (4, 3) would be,

For y-intercept, x = 0

3(0) - y = 9

⇒ y = -9

Hence, the y-intercept of the line is -9.

Option 'A' is correct.

can you complete your sentence? i could !

y= 2x+7

changed to y= 5x +7

as slope is increased from 2 to 5

therefore it would be less steeper

so, option d) is correct
