The correct Answer is:
To find the y-intercept and the slope of the line defined by the equation \(0 = 7y - 5x + 9\), we will convert the equation into the slope-intercept form, which is \(y = mx + c\), where \(m\) is the slope and \(c\) is the y-intercept. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Start with the given equation:** \[ 0 = 7y - 5x + 9 \] 2. **Rearrange the equation to isolate \(y\):** \[ 7y = 5x - 9 \] 3. **Divide every term by 7 to solve for \(y\):** \[ y = \frac{5}{7}x - \frac{9}{7} \] 4. **Identify the slope and y-intercept:** - From the equation \(y = \frac{5}{7}x - \frac{9}{7}\): - The slope \(m\) is \(\frac{5}{7}\) - The y-intercept \(c\) is \(-\frac{9}{7}\) ### Final Answer: - **Slope:** \(\frac{5}{7}\) - **Y-intercept:** \(-\frac{9}{7}\)
