the y-intercept (0,6) all you have to do when the formula is written like that just divide the opposite side by the number next to y.

Answer:

y intercept ( b) = 6.

Explanation:

Given : equation 4x + 2y=12.

To find : what is the y-intercept of the line with the equation.

Solution : We have given that 4x + 2y=12.

Equation of line : y = mx + b

Where, m = slope , b = y intercept.

4x + 2y=12.

Convert it into line form.

On subtracting both sides by 4x

2y = -4x + 12 .

On dividing both sides by 2.

y = -2y + 6.

On comparing m = -2 , b = 6 .

Therefore, y intercept ( b) = 6.
