What is the y-intercept of y=-3x + 10?

3
10
-3
0

The correct answer is: 10

The y-intercept is the point where a line intersects with the y-axis. In the equation y=-3x + 10, we can see that the constant term, 10, represents the y-intercept. This is because when the value of x is 0, the only remaining term in the equation will be the y-intercept, which in this case, is 10. Option A suggests that 3 is the y-intercept, however, this is not accurate. 3 is the coefficient of x and does not represent the y-intercept. Option C suggests that -3 is the y-intercept, however, this is also incorrect. -3 is the slope of the line and does not represent the y-intercept. Option D suggests that 0 is the y-intercept, but once again, this is not accurate. The value of 0 is not present
