Answer:
'Equal to' is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line is given by y=mx+c, where m= slope and c= y-intercept.
In the given equation y=3x+2, the y-intercept is 2.
Now, from the graph we get two pair of points (0,2) and (-1,0). Using these points, we will find the slope.
i.e. ![m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=m%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7By_%7B2%7D-y_%7B1%7D%7D%7Bx_%7B2%7D%20-x_%7B1%7D%7D)
i.e. m= ![\frac{0-2}{-1-0}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B0-2%7D%7B-1-0%7D)
i.e. m= 2.
Now, using this slope and the point (-1,0) in the given equation, we will find the equation of the graph.
i.e. (y-
) = m*(x-
)
i.e y-0 = 2*(x-(-1))
i.e. y= 2*(x+1)
i.e. y= 2x+2
Therefore, y=2x+2 is the equation of the graph and comparing with the general form at the start, the y-intercept is 2.
Hence, both equations have equal y-intercept.
