Question

Determine the y-intercept of the line
11x - 8y = 22

Answer 1

`-(22)/(8)` or
`- (11)/(4)` in mixed number form,
`-2(3)/(4)` simplified

Explanation:

Minus 11x from 11x and 22.
You will then get -8y=11x+22.
Divide all the numbers by -8y.
You will get y=-11/8x-22/8
So the y-intercept is -22/8 or -11/4
I hope I got this right

Answer 2

- 2.75 or - 2
`(3)/(4)`

Explanation:

Put in zero for x to solve for y

11x -8y = 22

11(0) -8y = 22

-8y = 22 Divide both sides by -8

y = -2.75

(0, -2.75)
