Question

What is the y-intercept of the line given by the equation below? Enter your answer as an ordered pair.

Answer 1

The y intercept of given equation y = 2x + 10 is (0, 10)

Solution:

Given equation of line is:

y = 2x + 10

To find: y intercept of the line

The point where a line or curve crosses the y-axis of a graph is y intercept

Finding y - intercept:

To find the y-intercept, plug 0 in for 'x' and solve for 'y'

Substitute x = 0 in given equation

y = 2(0) + 10

y = 0 + 10

y = 10

Thus the y intercept of given equation is (0, 10)
