Answer:

-1

Explanation:

The y intercept is -1. You can graph to see that.

Another option is to rearrange the equation to point slope form, y=mx+b where b is the intercept.

8x-3y=3

-3y = 3-8x

Divide everything by -3 to isolate the y

y = (3-8x)/-3

y = -1 +(8/3)x

So you can see the y intercept is -1.
