The equation of a line is y=−2x−4 . What is the y -intercept?(1 point)

1 answer

The equation of the line is given in the slope-intercept form, which is \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept.

In the equation \( y = -2x - 4 \):

  • The slope \( m \) is \(-2\),
  • The y-intercept \( b \) is \(-4\).

Therefore, the y-intercept is \(-4\).
