Question

What is the y-intercept of the line y= -6x -3?

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -3 or (0,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y intercept is when x is 0 so substitute 0 for x:

y=-6(0)-3=0-3=-3

y = -3

Answer 2

In order to find the y intercept you must substitute 0 for x and solve for y, and also simplify if needed.

$y=-6x-3$

$y=-6\times0-3$

$-6\times0-3$

$y=0-3$

$-6\times 0 = 0$

$0-3=-3$

$= -3$

$y = (0,-3)$

Therefore your answer is " y = (0,-3)."

Hope this helps.
