Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can plug all the given values into the equation y=mx+b. This is called slope-intercept form. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. To find the y-intercept, we solve for b.

y=mx+b

1=2(3)+b

1=6+b

Subtract both sides by 6

1-6=6+b-6

-5=b

Therefore, the y-intercept is -5.
