In the standard equation for a line, what does the variable b stands for .

y=mx+b

y-intercept

Explanation The "b" or the constant term represents the y-intercept which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2
