+graph%28+800%2C+800%2C+-15%2C+15%2C+-15%2C+15%2C+-2x%5E2-12x-14%29+
The graph of the equation -2x%5E2+-12x+-14 crosses the y axis at -14.
The point (or points) where the graph crosses the y axis is the y-intercept, also determined by setting x to zero: -2%280%29%5E2-12%280%29-14=y=-14=y. If the graph does not cross the y axis, there is no y intercept.Example: vertical lines, such as x=1 are not solvable for x=0.
