Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the y-intercept of the line 2x - 3y = 6? (2022)
  • Step 1: Start with the equation of the line: 2x - 3y = 6.
  • Step 2: To find the y-intercept, set x to 0 because the y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis.
  • Step 3: Substitute x = 0 into the equation: 2(0) - 3y = 6.
  • Step 4: Simplify the equation: 0 - 3y = 6, which simplifies to -3y = 6.
  • Step 5: To solve for y, divide both sides by -3: y = 6 / -3.
  • Step 6: Simplify the result: y = -2.
