Given that the point (−3^� ,2) lies on the  line    y=2x + c.find the coordinates   of the point of intersection of this line and the y−axis

y = 2x +c  2 = 2(−3) + c  c = 8    y = 2x + 8 intersect with y−axis →  x = 0  →  y = 8  Point of intersect (0,8)
$${y}\:=\:\mathrm{2}{x}\:+{c} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}\:=\:\mathrm{2}\left(−\mathrm{3}\right)\:+\:{c} \\ $$$${c}\:=\:\mathrm{8} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${y}\:=\:\mathrm{2}{x}\:+\:\mathrm{8}\:\mathrm{intersect}\:\mathrm{with}\:{y}−\mathrm{axis}\:\rightarrow\:\:{x}\:=\:\mathrm{0}\:\:\rightarrow\:\:{y}\:=\:\mathrm{8} \\ $$$$\mathrm{Point}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{intersect}\:\left(\mathrm{0},\mathrm{8}\right) \\ $$
