Question

What is the y-intercept of 3x+5y=−30 ?

(0,−6)

(−6,0)

(10,−6)

(0,10)

Answer 1

Answer: (0,-6)

Explanation:

To find the y-intercept, we can rewrite the equation into slope-intercept form.

3x+5y=-30 [subtract both sides by 3x]

5y=-3x-30 [divide both sides by 5]

y=-3/5x-6

Now that the equation is in slope-interceot form, we know that the y-intercept is -6, we know that the answer is (0,-6).
