Question

What is the y-intercept of the equation 3x - 4y = 16?
A. -4
B. 0
C. 3/4
D. 16

Answer 1

You can find the y-intercept by plugging in zero for x and solving. We know that the value will always be zero when the point is on the y-axis, which is the y-intercept.
3(0) -4y = 16
-4y = 16
divide both sides by -4
y = -4
