Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Well the x intercept is the point the line touches the x-axis.

And to find it we need to graph the given equation.

7x - 2y = 14

Look at the image below ↓

By looking at the given image we can tell that the x-intercept is 2.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

$\displaystyle equal\:to \\ Line\:B: 1 \\ Line\:A: -1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from the y-intercept of $\displaystyle [0, -2],$ you do $\displaystyle \frac{rise}{run}$ by either moving one block south over one block west or one block north over one block east [west and south are negatives].

Now, for Line A, we need to convert this Linear Standard Equation to Slope-Intercept Form, $\displaystyle y = mx + b,$ where the slope is represented by m:

x + y = 3

- x - x

__________

$\displaystyle y = -x + 3$

So, the slope of Line A is $\displaystyle -1,$ and since −1 is less than 1, less than would be the answer, HOWEVER, they BOTH have some slope of 1, so since −1 is the negative absolute value of 1, equal to will be the answer.
