Darren is finding the equation in the form mc014-1.jpg for a trend line that passes through the points (2, 18) and (–3, 8). Which value should he use as b in his equation?       the word that wont pop up is y=mx+b

Respuesta :

First, we must calculate the slope, or m, of the line using:
Slope = rise / run
Slope = (8 - 18) / (-3 - 2)
Slope = 2

Using this in the equation y = mx + b with a given point, we can evaluate b as:
18 = 2(2) + b
b = 14

The y-intercept of the line is 14
