Math Problem Statement
To find the y-intercept, we
set the y-value = 0 and solve for x.
set the x-value = 0 and solve for y.
set the y-value = 0 and solve for y.
set the x=value =0 and solve for x.
None of these.
Solution
The correct method to find the y-intercept is to set the x-value = 0 and solve for y.
Therefore, the correct option is:
- Set the x-value = 0 and solve for y.
