Answer:

The y-intercept (+2) is 2, which means that it intesrsects the graph at (0,2).

Hope this helps:)

Answer:

Yes, it does pass through the point B(0;2)

Given:

  • Equation: y = -2x + 2
  • Point: (x, y) = (0, 2)

To check if an equation passes through a point, substitute the point values in the equation and check if it becomes true.

y = -2x + 2

2 = -2(0) + 2

2 = 0 + 2

2 = 2

As it becomes true as L.H.S = R.H.S, the equation y = -2x + 2 passes through this point (0, 2).
