the format (x,y).

To find the y-intercept of a line written in the form ax + by = c, we set x equal to zero and solve for y.

So, let's set x to 0:

-10(0) + 10y = -1
0 + 10y = -1
10y = -1

Then, solving for y, we divide each side by 10 to get

y = -1/10
y = -0.1

Therefore, considering that in the y-intercept x equals 0, our point for the y-intercept in the format (x, y) is

(0, -0.1)
