Answer:

y- intercept = - 7

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

given

x - y = 7 ( subtract x from both sides )

- y = - x + 7 ( multiply through by - 1 )

y = x - 7 ← in slope- intercept form

with y- intercept c = - 7
