Question 224740: Find the slope and the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation: 2x + y = 14

First, you want to re-arrange this equation into slope-intercept form by subtracting 2x from both sides so you get:
y = 14 - 2x
OR
y = -2x + 14
In slope-intercept form, the co-efficient in front of the X term is your slope so the slope in this case is -2. The y-intercept is the other number, 14.
