Question

Find the y intercept of the equation y=-6x+10

Answer 1

ANSWER

The y-intercept is 10.

EXPLANATION

The given equation is

$y = - 6x + 10$

At y-intercept, x=0.

This implies that,

$y = - 6(0) + 10$

This simplifies to,

$y = 10$

The y-intercept is 10.

It has the ordered pair,

$(0,10)$

Also, we can compare to

$y = mx+c$

where

$m=-6$ is the slope

and

$c=10$

is the y-intercept.
