hello!

====================================================

Let's find the y-intercept of this line.

You should notice that the equation is written in Slope-Intercept Form:


\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{y=mx+b}}}

Where

m -> slope

b -> y-intercept

In the equation y=mx+b, the y-intercept is b, and in the equation y=3x+2, 2 is the y-intercept.

=========================================================

note:-

Hope everything is clear; if you need any clarification/explanation, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)

Answer:

The y-intercept is 2.

Explanation:

We can find the y-intercept by looking at the linear equation y = mx + b.

m = slope

b = y-intercept
