The y-intercept is found when x is set to 0.
Set x to equal 0 for both equations:
Divide both sides by -2:
The y-intercept of this equation is 3, so the first line does not have the y-intercept of -2.
-
Divide both sides by 2:
The y-intercept of this equation is -1, so the second line does not have the y-intercept of -2.
Neither line has a y-intercept of -2.
