Answer:

C) 6

Explanation:

I converted the equation into slope-intercept form and then identified the y-intercept.


4x+2y=12\\\\4x-4x+2y=12-4x\\\\2y=12-4x\\\\(2y=12-4x)/(2)\\\\ y=6-2x\\\\y=-2x+6\\\\y=-2x+\boxed{6}

C should be the correct answer.

Hope this helps.

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation: The y-intercept is a point where a line

crosses the y-axis and all y-intercepts have an x-coordinate of zero.

So to find the y-intercept of this line, we can plug a 0 in for x.

So we have 4(0) + 2y = 12.

So 2y = 12 which means that y = 6.

So the y-intercept of this line is 6.
