Question

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of y = 14x − 2

Answer 1

Your graph is wrong the intercepts are 0.143 for x, and -2 for y, with a positive slope

Answer 2

(1/7,0)

(0,-2)

Explanation:

The x-intercept is the point where the line intercepts the axis at where y=0 and the y-intercept is where the graph intersepts the axis at x-0.

For x=0,

`y=14\cdot{0}-2=-2`

The y-intercep is -2

For y=0

`0=14\cdot{x}-2`

`x=1/7`

The graph is wrong as the x-intercept is 1/7 when y=0
