Hello there!
Your question asks which pair represents the y-intercept in the equation.
Answer: C). (0,6)
To find the answer in your question, we are going to need to find the key terms in the question.
Key terms:
y-intercept
y = -5x + 6
With the information above, we can find the answer.
We know that the equation is similar to the equation: y= mx + b
We need to find what the y-intercept is in the equation.
When you look at the equation, y = -5x + 6, you would know that the y intercept would be the last number (6). Therefore, 6 would be our y intercept.
But, we need to get the number 6 in the right ordered pair.
An ordered pair is represented as (x,y).
So, we would plug in the 6 in the y spot, since it's the y-intercept. We would plug in 0 to x, since we're only focusing on the y-axis, any number on this would not allow the ordered pair to be on the y-axis.
This means that your ordered pair should be (0,6).
C). (0,6) should be your FINAL answer
I hope this helps!
Best regards, MasterInvestor
