Y intercept means the y-coordinate of the point where the graph crosses the y-axis.

Given equation is:

[tex]-2x+6y=5[/tex]

Let x be 0, as at the y-intercept point, the x-coordinate of that point is always 0.

[tex]-2(0)+6y=5[/tex]

[tex]6y=5[/tex]

y=[tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line {the number without a variable}

-2x+6y = 5

6y = 2x+5

y= [tex]\frac{2x}{6}+\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Hence, slope is [tex]\frac{2}{6}or\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
