You can't really answer that question the way it was asked. If you know a value of x or y, you can find the other value though.

For example, say you want to find the x-intercept (where y=0)

y = 3x + 2
0 = 3x + 2
-2 = 3x
-2/3 = x

There you go, you can do this for any point you know is on the line.

Y= 3X+2
if X=0 then y=3x0+2=0+2=2
if X=1 then Y=3x1+2= 3+2= 5
if X=2 then Y=3x2+2= 6+2=8
so different points of line are (0,2), (1,5) ,(2,8)
plot these points on graph paper and you will get a straight line.

y = 3x+2

x= y-2 divided by 3

u get different values of y wen u substitute different values for x .
For ex:
if x=1 then y=3(1)+2=5.
if y=2then x=3(2)+2=8;etc .
hope that was helpful

For the formula y=mx+b

m is not the y intercept

m is the slope and b is the y intercept

just to make the clear

the format is came from y=a+bx
a is y-intercept
b is the slope or gradien.

if y=0
so 3x=-2
and x=-2/3

and if x=0
so y=2
