Question 60347: What is the y-intercept of the equation y=2x? isn't it zero

Well, i will give a short answer (thankfully). Yes it is. From equation y=mx+b, m=slope and b=the y-intercept. in this question y=2x, there is no y-intercept so you assume that the y-intercept is zero or origin because you can add zero to anything.
