I want to know why my answer was wrong to this question:

What is the y-intercept of the line given by the following equation below?
11x − 7y = 121
a: (-11,0)
b: (0, -121/7) The correct answer
c: (11,0) My answer
d: (121/7,0)

Both of these gives me 121 so.

You have to think about the equation in y=mx+b form and since b (the y intercept) is 121 that is your answer.
