Hello there,

The equation that is given to us is as follows:

  • 2x + 5y = -6

Now we have to first put this equation in slope intercept form. So first we have to subtract 2x from both sides:

  • 5y = -2x -6

Then we divide both sides by 5:

  • y = [tex]-\frac{2}{5}[/tex] x [tex]-\frac{6}{5}[/tex]

Now that we have put the equation in slope-intercept form we should note that the number in front of the x is the slope and the other number is the y-intercept.

So the y-intercept of the following equation is [tex]-\frac{6}{5}[/tex] .

Hope I helped,
