Question

What is the y-intercept of the line x+2y=-14? (0,7) (-7,0) (0,-7) (2,14)

Answer 1

`\begin{gathered} \text{First, we need to isolate y} \\ 2y=-x-14 \\ y=(-x-14)/(2) \\ y=(-x)/(2)-(14)/(2) \\ y=-(x)/(2)-7 \\ -7\text{ represents the y-intercept} \\ \text{When you write as a point it would be (0, -7)} \end{gathered}`
