Question

Find the slope and y-intercept of the line 14x+4y=24

Answer 1

slope=-7/2

y-intercept=(0,6)

Hopes this helps, man!

Answer 2

slope = -
`(7)/(2)` and y- intercept = 6

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 14x + 4y = 24 into this form

Subtract 14x from both sides

4y = - 14x + 24 ( divide all terms by 4 )

y = -
`(7)/(2)` x + 6 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = -
`(7)/(2)` and y- intercept c = 6
