  1. A \(\frac{2}{3}\)
  2. B \(1\)
  3. C \(\frac{4}{3}\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{4}{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of the line passing through \((2,2)\)
and perpendicular to \(3 x+y=3\)
\((x-2)-3(y-2)=0\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad x-3 y=-4\)
\(\therefore y\) intercept of this line is \(\frac{4}{3}\).
