Question

Find the y - intercept of the line:
8
y=-3 -
7
Select one:
O a. 5/3
O b. - 5/3
O c.8/7.
O d. - 877

Answer 1

Answer:

d. $-\frac{8}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept value in a given equation in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b sis represented by b.

Thus, given the line $y = \frac{-5x}{3} - \frac{8}{7}$, the value of b (y-intercept) is represented as $-\frac{8}{7}$.

It is the value of y when x = 0.

Therefore, the y-intercept of the line is $-\frac{8}{7}$.
