Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of y = 14x − 2
Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of y = 14x − 2
Your graph is wrong the intercepts are 0.143 for x, and -2 for y, with a positive slope
Answer:
(1/7,0)
(0,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-intercept is the point where the line intercepts the axis at where y=0 and the y-intercept is where the graph intersepts the axis at x-0.
For x=0,
\(y=14\cdot{0}-2=-2\)
The y-intercep is -2
For y=0
\(0=14\cdot{x}-2\)
\(x=1/7\)
The graph is wrong as the x-intercept is 1/7 when y=0
