y= mx + b
m is the slope of the equation (the change in y over x)
x is a variable
b is the y intercept
So, that means that the line intercepts the y axis at the point (0,8)

the equation is in slope-intercept style, which means that you'll tell the slope and the y-intercept merely by technique of searching on the equation. Slope-intercept style is y = mx + b, the position m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Your equation is y = 9/2x - 4. 9/2 is m, or the slope. -4 is b, or the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the position the line crosses the y-axis, which means that x = 0. So the ordered pair for the answer's (0, -4)

(0,8)
slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where b is the y-intercept.
at y-intercept the value for x is always 0.

b is the y intercept ...that is 8 .....so the ordered pair is (0,8)

To find the x intercept, put in a zero for y and solve for x.
To find the y intercept, put in a zero for x and solve for y.(so easy even a kid could do it).
your answer is then (x,y).

the equation is y=mX+b (b is the y-intercept)
anything on the y-intercept has a zero x spot so its (0,8)

y-intercept is (0,8).
Just set x = 0.
