Question

What is the Y-Intercept of the equation below?

4y = 3x

Answer 1

convert to slope intercept form first

Answer 2

in slope intercept form yax+b b is the y-inter

Answer 3

Convert to slope-intercept form.

y = mx + b

4y = 3x

Divide 4 to both sides:

y = 3/4x

y = mx + b

Where 'b' is the y-intercept, so what's the y-intercept here?

Answer 4

in the slope-inperecept form \(y=mx+\color{red}{b},\) the b is the y-intercept.

Answer 5

y = 3/4x

Do you see anything after '3/4x'? @tmowry228

Answer 6

no

Answer 7

remember that \(y=mx+\color{red}{0} \) is also the same as saying that the y-intercept is zero, which we normally omit such as in the case of \(y = 3x+\color{red}{0} \rightarrow y=3x\)

Answer 8

y=ax+b int his case b=0

Answer 9

then what would it be nothing eequals what

Answer 10

that is the rough way of looking at it, but it is important to note that the y-intercept can actually be analytically solved by making the value of \(x=0 \), which will make sense if you have an idea how to graph linear equations

Answer 11

Yes, then the y-intercept is 0.
