Get it into the form

where
= slope
= y intercept

Subtract from both sides



The y-intercept is
Note that if I make in the equation,
I get

y intersept.
Or if you have a graphing calculator.
you just inter in in an gow to your
tabe wich shows all your points,
and whe the x is zero the the y of
that point is your y-intersept.
I hope this helped. If you have any more
