$5x^2+7x-66=0 \\ \\5x^2+7x -22x+ 22x-66=0 \\ \\ 5x^2-15x+ 22x-66=0 \\ \\5x(x-3)+22(x-3)=0 \\ \\ (x-3)(5x+22)=0\\ \\x-3 = 0 \ \ or \ \ 5x+22 =0 \\ \\ x=3 \ \ or \ \ 5x=-22 \ \ /:5 \\ \\x=3 \ \ or \ \ x=-\frac{22}{5} \\ \\x=3 \ \ or \ \ x=-4\frac{2}{5}$

Which function has the same y-intercept as the function y equals 2/3 x - 3

aleksley [76]

We have the function $y = \frac{2}{3} x -3$ and we want to find a function that has the same y-intercept than the previous function.

First, let's find the y-intercept by subtituting 0 for 'x'.

$y = \frac{2}{3} (0) -3 = -3$

Now that we found that y-intercept =-3, any lineal function of the type: $y = ax - 3$ will have the same y-intercept. Where 'a' can take all the real values.
