Question

Find the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation below.
4, x, minus, 5, equals, y
4x−5=y

Answer 1

To find the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation \( 4x - 5 = y \), we need to determine the value of \( y \) when \( x = 0 \).

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

\[
y = 4(0) - 5
\]
\[
y = 0 - 5
\]
\[
y = -5
\]

Thus, the y-intercept is \( (0, -5) \).
