x- y = 7
⇒ y -x = -7 (multiply by -1 on both sides).
⇒ y +(x-x)= -7 +x
⇒ y= x-7
The y-intercept of the line is y= x-7
.
Hope this helps~

x-y=7
so you have to rewrite the equation in the form of mx+b=y
so ... x-y=7
-x -x
-y=7-x then simplify
-y(-y)=-(7-x) multiply both sides by -1
y=-7+x
which is the same y= x-7
y=x+-7
