▸The line crosses the y-axis at the point (0, -2).
- The y-intercept is b = y - m*x: with slope m = 2 the line crosses the y-axis at the point (0, -2).
- In slope-intercept form the line is y = 2x - 2.
- The x-intercept (where y = 0) is at x = 1, meaning (1, 0).
- You can verify: plug x = 0 into y = mx + b and you get y = b, confirming the y-intercept directly.
Next stepBoth intercepts are now known: y-intercept (0, -2) and x-intercept (1, 0). Two points are enough to graph the full line.
