If (y=-9x+s) and (y=6x-17) have the same (y)-intercept, what will (s) be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: -17

In the form y = mx + c, the y-intercept is the constant term c because putting x = 0 gives y = c. The y-intercept of y = -9x + s is s, while that of y = 6x - 17 is -17. Since the intercepts are equal, s = -17. The value -9 is the slope of the first line, not its y-intercept. Exam tip: To find a y-intercept, substitute x = 0.
