shows the point where the graph crosses the \(y\)-axis. This is known as the \(y\)-intercept and is represented by the letter \(c\) in \(y = mx + c\). As you move along a line from left to right ...

The graphs of \(y = 2x + 1\) and \(y = 2x - 2\) are shown below. The graph of \(y = 2x + 1\) crosses the \(y\)-axis at (0, 1). The graph of \(y = 2x - 2\) crosses the ...
