Question

What is the y-intercept of the line given by the equation y=3x-11

Answer 1

-11

Explanation:

In a linear equation y=mx + b, m is always the slope, and b is always the y-intercept.

In your equation, we can see that b = -11, which means that -11 is the y-intercept.

You can also find the y-intercept by plugging 0 for x. When you plug 0 for x, we get y = -11, which is the slope.

Depending on how you want the answer, it can be either -11 or (0,-11)

Answer 2

b=-11 or (0,-11)

Explanation:

Recall slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Therefore, the y-intercept for this line is b=-11
