Question

What is the t intercept of the line given by the equation below y= -10x + 14

Answer 1

Answer:

The y-intercept is (0,14) and the x-intercept is (7/5, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

An intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis or y-axis. The y-intercept has the point (0,b) where b is the same b in y=mx+b. The y-intercept for this line is b=14 or (0,14).

The x-intercept is where y=0. Set the equation equal to 0 and solve for x to find it.

0 = -10x+14

-14=-10x

-14/-10 = x

7/5 = x

The x-intercept is (7/5, 0).
