Question

At what point does the line

Y = 2X + 6 intercept the Y-axis?

A. 2.
B. 8
C. -2
D. 1/6
E. 6

Answer 1

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation: The equation of this line is written in slope-intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form.

In this form, the m or the coefficient of the x term represents the slope

of the line and the b or the constant term represents the y-intercept.

We can see that the y-intercept is 6.

Answer 2

E. 6

Explanation:

The y-intercept is where the graph crosses the y-axis when x = 0. In that case, simply plug in x as 0:

y = 2(0) + 6

y = 6

Therefore, our graph crosses the y-axis at 6.
