Answer: (0,-10)

Explanation:

The equation of a line (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-


(y-b)=(d-b)/(c-a)(x-a)

From the given graph , the line is passing through (6,2) and (8,6) is given by :_


(y-6)=(6-2)/(8-6)(x-8)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-6=\dfrca{4}{2}(x-8)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-6=2(x-8)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=2(x-8)+6

To find the y intercept put x =0 , we get


y=2(0-8)+6=-16+6=-10

Hence, the y-intercept of the graph : (0,-10)
