Answer: (0, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

     When given an equation in slope-intercept form, the y-intercept is the b value in y = mx + b.

    This means the y-intercept in y = 5x - 2 is -2

         The coordinate is (0, -2).

Hi there,

please see below for solution steps :

   __________

What we have is an equation in [tex]\sf{y=mx+b}[/tex] form.

Here,

◉ the m number is the slope

◉ the b number is the y-intercept

 __________

Okay.

Now, the y-intercept is usually expressed as (0, b).

Since we know that the y-intercept is -2, we can substitute that into the co-ordinate formula :

(0,-2)

These are the co-ordinates of the y-intercept.

And remember! y-intercepts always have an x co-ordinate (the first co-ordinate of any point) of 0.

Hope the answer - and explanation - made sense,

happy learning !!
