What is the y-intercept of the line graphed below?

• 3
• 4
• -3
• 4/3

Answer explanation

Remember the y-intercept is where he graph(the line) crosses the y-axis

The point where the line crosses the y-axis is called the:

• origin
• x-intercept
• y-intercept
• slope

_{What is the y-intercept of the line?}

• y = 1/2
• y = 1
• y = -1/2
• y = -1

What is the y intercept?
y = 2x - 3

• 3
• -3
• 1
• 2
