Answer:

  • The y-intercept is 15.

Explanation:

We know that:

  • Formula = y = 3x + 15
  • Slope = m
  • y-intercept = b

Let's compare the formula and the equation given.

Work:

  • (y = 3x + 15) = (y = mx + b)
  • b = 15

When we compared, we can say that the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is 15.

Hoped this helped.
