Question
Given the equation y=34x−2
what is the y
-intercept? Write your answer as an ordered pair.(1 point)
The y
-intercept is (
)

Answer 1

To find the y-intercept of the equation \( y = 34x - 2 \), you need to determine the value of \( y \) when \( x = 0 \).

Substituting \( x = 0 \) into the equation:

\[ y = 34(0) - 2 \] \[ y = -2 \]

So the y-intercept is at the point \( (0, -2) \).

Therefore, the answer is: The y-intercept is \( (0, -2) \).
