Copy down this equation, and then let x=0.  Solve the resulting equation, -7y=12, for y.    Then your y-intercept is the point (0,y).

To find the y-intercept of the line represented by 6x - 7y = 12, we first need to rewrite the equation into standard form. Here is how you do it:
6x - 7y = 12
-7y = -6x + 12
y = 6/7x - 12/7
The y-intercept of the line represented by the equation 6x - 7y = 12 is (0, -12/7). Hope this helps and have a fabulous day!
