Question
Find the y-intercept of the following equation.
y = 3x + 5
- -4
- -4x
- 5
- -5
Hint:
Constant part of standard equation y = mx + b, which is b is y intercept
The correct answer is: 5
Given y = 3x + 5
The given equation is in slope-intercept form i.e., y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept and m is the slope.
Step 1 : In y = 3x+5,
b = 5
So , the y-intercept is 5.
put x = 0, in the given equation and solve for y, you will get y intercept.
