Question

What is the y-intercept of the line?



y=-7x+1





y-intercept =

Answer 1

The y-intercept of the line is where the line crosses the y-axis.
To get on the y-axis, the x-coordinate of the coordinates of the y-intercept has to be 0.

Answer 2

So, take y=-7x+1.
In place of x, put 0.

Solve y = - 7 * (0) + 1 for y to get the y intercept.

Post what you get and we can compare answers, okay?

Answer 3

What do you get when you multiply -7 times 0 ? @Christiana19199

Answer 4

I get 0

Answer 5

0+1 is 1

Answer 6

@Christiana19199

Look at this:

y = - 7 * (0) + 1 ---> 7*0 = 0

So, y = - 7 * (0) + 1 = 0 + 1 = 1.
