Question

For the equation given below, find the the slope and the y-intercept : $3y=7$

• A. $0and\frac{7}{3}$
• B. $0and-\frac{7}{3}$
• C. $-\frac{7}{3}and0$
• D. $\frac{7}{3}and0$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $0and\frac{7}{3}$

The equation of any straight line can be written as $y=mx+c$, where $m$ is its slope and $c$ is its y - intercept.
$3y=7$ can be written as $y=\frac{7}{3}$

Comparing this equation with the standard form of the equation, we get:
$m=0,c=\frac{7}{3}$
Hence, slope of $3y=7$ is $0$ and y -intercept is $\frac{7}{3}$
