This is a very simple subject.
\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept is either a positive or negative number. To make things simpler, it is the point when the line crosses the y-axis.(vertical line)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so lets say y=3x+7\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept will be 7 and that is the point on the y-axis in which the line passes through.
\n" ); document.write( "If that number was a negative number, then it would cross in the negative values.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
