QuestionFind the $y$ -intercept of the line $2x + y = -3$ . A. -2 B. 2 C. 3 D. -3

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The equation of the line is $x + y = -3$ . The $y$ -intercept of a line is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. At this point, the value of $x$ is0.

STEP 2

To find the $y$ -intercept, we need to substitute $x =0$ into the equation of the line.
$2x + y = -$

STEP 3

Substitute $x =0$ into the equation.
$2(0) + y = -3$

STEP 4

implify the equation to find the value of $y$ .
$y = -3$ The $y$ -intercept of the line is -3.
