Question

What is the y-intercept of the equation 4×+2y=12?

Answer 1

Change the equation to y-intercept form
4x+2y=12
2y= -4x + 12
y = -2x + 6
The y-intercept is 6, since the constant in the y-intercept form function is 6.

Answer 2

The Y-intercept is a point where the line crosses the Y lines. That means it would be the point where X=0. Then to find the Y-intercept you only need to insert X=0 into the equation. The calculation would be:

4×+2y=12
4(0) + 2 Y= 12
2Y =12
Y=6
