Answer: the intercept is 8
The equation is
y = 4x/7 + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c
Where c = y intercept
Slope, m =change in value of y ontthe vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis
change in the value of y = y2 - y1
Change in value of x = x2 -x1
y2 = final value of y
y 1 = initial value of y
x2 = final value of x
x1 = initial value of x
From the information given,
Slope, m = 4/7
The points given are (0,8)
y = mx + c
8 = 4/7 × 0 +c
c = 8
The equation is
y = 4x/7 + 8
