If the equation of a line is 2y+3x=3, what is the y intercept of the line?​

Answer 1

1.5

Explanation:

2y+3x=3

Convert to y=mx+b form...

y=mx+b

y(output)

x(input)

x(slope/growth)

b(y int/starting point)

Steps for converting to y=mx+b form:

-subtract 3x from both sides of equal sign

-divide by 2 on both sides

2y+3x = 3

2y = -3x+3

y = -1.5+1.5

y = -1.5+1.5

so 1.5 is y int.

:)ur welcome

Answer 2

3/2

Explanation:

2y+3x=3

This represents a linear equation and the format for a linear equation is

y = mx+b

m = slope

b= y-intercept

we have to subtract 3x from both sides to make this the y=mx+b form

2y=-3x+3

and divide both sides by 2

y = (-3x+3)/2

3/2 or 1.5 is the y-intercept

the constant of a linear equation (or 3) is the y-intercept, if there is no constant then the y-intercept is 0
