What is the y intercept of the line y-14=6 (x-2.5)

(0, - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

y-14=6 (x-2.5)

Distributive property:

y-14 = 6 * x - 6*2.5

y-14 = 6x-15

Add 14 on each side:

y-14+14=6x-15+14

Simplify:

y=6x-1

In the form y=mx+b (slope-intercept form, as shown above), the y-intercept is (0, b). b is - 1.

The y intercept is - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y-14=6 (x-2.5)

We need to get the equation in the form y = mx+b where b is the y intercept

Distribut the 6

y-14 = 6x - 15

Add 14 to each side

y-14+14 = 6x-15+14

y = 6x-1

The y - intercept is - 1
