It's $6$ $6$

Explanation:

You don't even need to remember any formula: the $y$ $y$ -intercept is, quite intuitively, the point in which the line crosses the $y$ $y$ -axis. But the point of that axis are the ones with $x$ $x$ -coordinate equal to zero. So, you need to find the value of the function when evaluated for $x = 0$ $x=0$ . In this case, $y (0) = 2 \cdot 0 + 6 = 6$ $y(0)=2*0 + 6 = 6$ .
