Answer:

y-intercept form: y=-2x-1

Explanation:

2y-4x=2

-4x=2-2y

-2-4x=2y


(-2)/(2) - (4x)/(2) =y

-1-2x=y

y=-2x-1

The y-intercept is:

⇨ 1

Work/explanation:

We need to first re-arrange this equation so that it's in slope intercept form (y = mx + b).

Don't forget that m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

So now let's re-arrange 2y - 4x = 2:

2y - 4x = 2

2y = 2 + 4x

2y = 4x + 2

y = 2x + 1

Now for the intercept. That is the constant term.

The constant is 1 which means that 1 is the y intercept.
