Question

The equation of a line is x + 3y = 14.

What is the y-intercept of the line?




−14

14/3

14

314

Answer 1

To find the y-intercept you first need to set everything equal to y and that will put everything in the y=mx+b line equation. Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

x+3y = 14 subtract x over

3y = -x+14 divide by 3

y = -1/3x +14

So 14 is the y-intercept of the equation

Answer 2

The answer I recieved was 14/3
