What is the y-intercept for the equation [tex]7x + 2y = -10[/tex]?

Asked by lala510

Answer (3)

FIrst we have to transform our equation into slope y-intercept form y=ab+x 7x+2y=-10 /-7x subtract 7x both sides 2y=-7x-10 /:2 divide by 2 both sides y=-7/2-5 Now we can read value of parameter b, which is b=-5. Its the our result, so -5.

subtract 7x from both sides 2y= -10-7x sub 0 in for x 2y= -10-7(0) divide both sides by 2 y= -5

The y-intercept of the equation 7 x + 2 y = − 10 is found by rearranging it into slope-intercept form, resulting in a y-intercept of − 5 . This means the line crosses the y-axis at the point ( 0 , − 5 ) .
