Find the `Y-` intercept of the line `2y=4x-3`.

Text Solution

The correct Answer is:
To find the Y-intercept of the line given by the equation \(2y = 4x - 3\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form We start with the equation: \[ 2y = 4x - 3 \] To convert this into slope-intercept form, we need to isolate \(y\). ### Step 2: Divide both sides by 2 To isolate \(y\), we divide the entire equation by 2: \[ y = \frac{4x - 3}{2} \] This simplifies to: \[ y = \frac{4}{2}x - \frac{3}{2} \] Which further simplifies to: \[ y = 2x - \frac{3}{2} \] ### Step 3: Identify the Y-intercept In the slope-intercept form \(y = mx + c\), \(m\) is the slope and \(c\) is the Y-intercept. From our equation: \[ y = 2x - \frac{3}{2} \] We can see that the Y-intercept \(c\) is \(-\frac{3}{2}\). ### Conclusion Thus, the Y-intercept of the line \(2y = 4x - 3\) is: \[ \boxed{-\frac{3}{2}} \] ---
