Question

What is the y-intercept of the line y + 4 = −4(x + 3.5)?

Answer 1

Answer:

-18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: $\[y+4=-4(x+3.5)\]$

Simplifying:

$\[y+4=-4x-14\]$

=> $\[y=-4x-14-4\]$

=> $\[y=-4x-18\]$

This is of the form y=mx+c where m is the slope of the line and c is the y intercept.

So, in this case, slope of the line is -4 and the y-intercept is -18.

This can also be verified by setting x=0 in the equation of the line.
