\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The absolutely correct answer would be \"None of the above\" because there is no such thing as a

-intercept of -7. Intercepts are points, and in

, intercepts are designated by ordered pairs. It would be correct to say that the

-intercept is

or that the

-coordinate of the

-intercept is -7.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Be that as it may, you didn't bother to share your choices, so I can't do much but tell you that if both the ordered pair

and the ordered pair

are elements of the solution set of the equation, then the equation describes a line with the given parameters assuming correct terminology for the

-intercept.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hint: In order to determine whether or not an ordered pair is an element of the solution set of an equation, substitute the

-coordinate for

in the equation, substitute the

-coordinate for

in the equation, and then do the indicated arithmetic. If the result is a true statement, then the order pair is an element of the set of ordered pairs described by the equation -- otherwise not.\r
