What is the y intercept of the line passing through the point (5,-6) with the slope of -1/7

The equation of the line would be y = -1/7x - 37/7

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to start with point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Now we can input the slope in for m and the point in for (x1, y1)

y + 6 = -1/7(x - 5)

y + 6 = -1/7x + 5/7

y = -1/7x - 37/7

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
