Solution

The correct option is C (0, 2)
The coordinates of the point at which the graph of the linear equation 2x + 3y = 6 meets the y-axis will be of the form (0, y).

Substituting x = 0 in the equation 2x + 3y = 6, we get

$2 \times 0 + 3 y = 6 \Rightarrow 3 y = 6 \Rightarrow y = 2$

So, the point of meeting is (0, 2).
