Question

What is the y-intercept for the graph of this line?

3x - 5y = 6

Answer 1

can u isolate y?

Answer 2

The y-intercept is what y is when you substitute 0 in for x. So:

3x - 5y = 15
3(0) - 5y = 15
-5y = 15
y = -3

So the y-intercept is (0, -3).

Answer 3

To find the y intercept, all you need to do is plug in 0 for x and solve. So

Answer 4

Right @Agl202 since the x is 0, whatever you get for y is the y coordinate in the ordered pair.
