Question 757442
y intercept is for x=0.  Solve the equation for y and let x equal zero.  You will also find that if solved for y, you may also have the equation in slope intercept form, allowing you to read the slope directly from the equation in this form.

{{{Ax+By=C}}}
{{{By=-Ax+C}}}
{{{y=-(A/B)x+C/B}}}


That corresponds to the typical slope-intercept form equation written as {{{y=mx+b}}} in which m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
