hello!


\sf{\underline{Given:-}


\bigstar{the~equation~of~the~line}

To find:-


\sf{\underline{the~y-intercept~of~the~line}

Solution:-

Since the equation is written in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), we should just look at the b term and identify the y-intercept.

Notice that the y-intercept is a constant.

Hence, the y-intercept is 4.

note:-

Hope everything is clear; if you need any explanation/clarification, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)

(0,4). When you have the equation in y= format, the last part (in this case +4) is the intercept
