What is the y-intercept for the equation 2y + 4x = 8?

a) - 2

b) 4

c) 2

d) - 4

The answer to your question is the letter B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

2y + 4x = 8

Process

To find the y-intercept, just solve the equation of y.

1. - Subtract 4x in both sides of the equation

2y + 4x - 4x = - 4x + 8

2. - Simplify

2y = - 4x + 8

3. - Divide both sides by 2

2y/2 = (-4x + 8) / 2

4. - Simplify

y = - 2x + 4

5. - Find the y-intercept

The y-intercept is the number that has no variable on the right side of the equation.

In this example is 4
