Hi,
The standard slope-intercept form of a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope
and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses
the y-axis.
.
solving for y in the equation given as an equation for the line:
x + 2y = 3
2y = -x + 3
y = (-1/2)x + 3
slope of this line is (-1/2)
y intercept is 3
line crosses the y axis at Pt(0,3)
