Given the points (6,6) and (10,8) calculate the gradient of the line passing through them and the point at which it intersects the y-axis?

To find the gradient use the formula:m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)Plug in values:m = (8-6)/(10-6) = 1/2Hence gradient = 1/2--Now using the equation for a line y = mx+c and point (10,8)8 = 1/2*10 + cc = 3Hence when ...
