Answer:
The y -intercept is 2.4
Explanation:
Given the equation:
[tex]5x+3y=12[/tex]
A linear function is of the form: y=mx+b where b is the y-intercept.
Expressing the equation in the form above, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3y=-5x+12 \\ y=-\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{12}{3} \\ y=-\frac{5}{3}x+4 \end{gathered}[/tex]
• Clearly, the function represents a linear function.
,
• The y-intercept, b = 4
Therefore, the statement that is not true is that the y-intercept is 2.4.
