Construct a street that has an x-intercept of 6 and a slope of 4. what is the y-intercept?

CAN U MARK BRAINLIST You've probably already seen the basic method for graphing straight lines; namely, make a T-chart, plot some points, put your ruler against them, and draw the line. But the "nice" form of a straight line's equation (being the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b) can make graphing even simpler and faster.

Given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the formula for the slope of the straight line going through these two points is:

\small{ m = \dfrac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2} }m=

...where the subscripts merely indicate that we have a "first" point (whose coordinates are subscripted with a "1") and a "second" point (whose coordinates are subscripted with a "2"); that is, the subscripts indicate nothing more than the fact that we have two points that we're working with. Note that which point we pick as the "first" point is irrelevant; if we pick the other point to be "first", the subtractions will be reversed, but we'll still get the exact same value for the slope:

\small{ m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} }m=

this is the formula: v = the value of investment at the end of the time period

p = the principal amount (the initial amount invested)

r = the annual interest rate

n = the annual frequency of compounding (how many times a year interest is added)

t = the number of years the money is invested
