Question

What is the y-intercept for the following:
5x – 7y = - 14

Answer 1

5x-7y+14=0

y= -14/5+7/5y

Explanation:

Answer 2

y-intercept = 2

Explanation:

Write in slope y-intercept form

y = mx + b

5x - 7y = -14

-7y = -5x - 14

Divide the equation by (-7)

`(-7y)/(-7)=(-5x)/(-7) -(14)/(-7)\\\\y = (5)/(7)x+2`
