Question

What is the vintercept of the line whose equation is y= 1/2x-3​

Answer 1

The y-intercept of line is (-3)

Explanation:

Given equation of line is given by y=
`(1)/(2)x-3​`

The general equation of line is given y=mx+c

Where, m= slope of line

c= y-intercept of line

On comparing both the equation.

c=(-3)

OR

y-intercept is when x=0,

therefore,

y=
`(1)/(2)x-3​`

y=
`(1)/(2)(0)-3​`

y=(-3)

Thus, y-intercept of line is (-3)
