Question

Find the slope and y-intercept (if possible) of the equation of the line. 14x − 6y = 66

Answer 1

The slope would be 7/3

The y-intercept would be -11

Explanation:

To find the answer rearrange your equation.

First subtract 14x from both sides, getting -6y= -14x + 66.

Then divide both sides by -6, getting y= 7/3x -11

This is now written in y=mx+b form. Your m is your slope and b is the y intercept!
