Question

The equation of a line is x + 3y = 14. What is the y-intercept of the line?

Answer 1

Answer:

First of all, before writing the y-intercept you need to make sure that the equation is in slope intercept form.

x + 3y = 14

3y = 14 - x

y = 14/3 -x/3

y= -x/3 + 14/3

                         14/3 is the y-intercept
