Answer:

Y-intercept = 1

Explanation:

To find the y-intercept you have to find where x = 0.

Plug this into the equation and solve to find the y-intercept:

y = 11(0) + 1

y = 0 + 1

y = 1

Thus, the y-intercept would be 1.

Also, when written in the slope-intercept form the y-intercept is always the lone number with no x with it.

So in the equation y = 11x + 1. You can see where the y-intercept is (the 1).

Hope this helps!!

Answer:


(0, 1)

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine the y-intercept

Using the slope intercept form, we know that the equation is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Therefore, looking at our equation, we can tell that b is 1 therefore the y-intercept is (0, 1)

Answer:
(0, 1)
