Question

Question 3 The graph of the equation x + 3y=6 intersects the y- axis at which coordinate point? (0, 2) (0, 6) (0, 18) (6, 0)

Answer 1

The intersection with the y-axis ocurrs at x=0. That is, by substituting x=0 in our given expression, we get

$0+3y=6$

which gives

$\begin{gathered} 3y=6 \\ y=\frac{6}{3} \\ y=2 \end{gathered}$

Then, the intersection point is (0,2). Which corresponds to the first option.
