Answer: B) -4

=========================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Point Q is located at (0,w). We see that x = 0 and y = w.

So we'll replace x with 0 and y with w. Then we solve for w.

2x+3y = -12

2(0)+3(w) = -12

0+3w = -12

3w = -12

3w/3 = -12/3

w = -4

In the second to last step, I divided both sides by 3 to undo the multiplication of 3. Saying 3w means "3 times w".

Side note: The point Q is the y intercept as this is the location where the diagonal line 2x+3y=-12 crosses the vertical y axis.
