if a line goes through the point (8,9) and has a slope of negative 3/4 what is the starting value?

Relax

Respuesta :

I assume by starting value, you mean y-intercept. The y-intercept is 15

To find this, we need to use slope intercept form and the given information to find it.

y = mx + b ----> plug in the known values

9 = -3/4(8) + b

9 = -6 + b

15 = b

Therefore, the starting value is 15.
