What is the y intercept of the line? X=24,36,48 and y= -8, 1, 10

y intercept = - 40

Step-by-step explanation:

x 24 36 48

y -8 1 10

y = ax + b

a is the gradient (or slope).

b = y intercept.

a = (48-36) / (10-1) = 12/9

Rewrite to solve for b, which means it starts with b = ...

b = y - 12/9 * x

Substitute one point ( 24 , -8 )

b = -8 - (12/9 * 24)

b = y intercept = - 40

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.
