find the y - intercept of the line 7x + 14y = - 30. write your answer as an integer or as a simplified proper or improper fraction, not as an ordered pair.
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Set x = 0
Set (x = 0) in the equation (7x+14y=-30). We get (7\times0 + 14y=-30).
Step2: Solve for y
Simplify the left - hand side to get (14y=-30). Then (y=\frac{-30}{14}), which simplifies to (y =-\frac{15}{7}).
Answer:
(-\frac{15}{7})
