Answer:

it is 2

Explanation:

to find the Y-intercept of a line, first u should find the slope intercept form

slope intercept form : y=mx+b

m=slope

b= y-intercept

first u should find the slope, so pick two points from the line and write them in a form of y2-y1/x2-x1

point 1: (1,0)

point 2: (2,2)

0-2/2-1=-2/1

m=-2

now pick one of the two points and replace it in the equation with the slope

0=-2(1)+b

solve for b

0=-2+b

add 2 on both sides

b=2

Answer:

Your Y-Intercept should be -2

Explanation:

You always need to look at where the line starts according to the coordinate when X = 0, or when the dot is in the very middle line.

Therefore, we can see that it starts at "down two", also known as "-2"
