Question

Find the y-intercept of the equatic 6x+2y=12

Answer 1

Answer: y-intercept = 6 (0,6)

Explanation:

To find the y-intercept we must put the equation in slope-intercept form:
`y=mx+b` where b is the y-intercept.

`6x+2y=12\\-6x=-6x\\2y=-6x+12` subtract 6x on both sides

`(2y)/(2) =(-6x)/(2) (+12)/(2)` divide 2y, -6x, and 12 by 2

`y=-3x+6`

We can see that 6 is our y-intercept
