Aline passes through (2, 4) and (-2, 2). find the value of y if (6, y) lies on the line. not sure how the 3 was brought into the equation per the last answer to my question.

Well, that is simple. You first must find the slope of the line from the 2 given points by using the slope formula. Which is y2-y1/x2-x1. So 2-4/-2-2 which equals -2/-4 which is 1/2. So the slope is 1/2. Now we can use the slope intercept form which is y=mx+b to find the slope equation. So we plug in one the points, say (2,4) and get y=1/2x+3. So now we plug in (6,y) Since we know x we can find y. y=1/2(6)+3 which gives us y=6. So y is 6.

investment b is an ordinary annuity with $3,909.64 in the account after one year.
