Question 91499: I asked this question already, but I got a different answer than the tutor.
The quesion is:
Find the y-intercept of -2x+2y=16
This is how I solved it:
-2x+2y=16
2y=2x+16
y=2x/2 +16/2
y=x + 8
So, the y-intercept is (0,8)
Is this correct?
(The tutor said the answer was (0,-8))
Thanks!
