What is the y-intercept of the linear equation 59x + 14y - 112 = 0?
A. 8
B. 14
C. 28
D. 59
Answer: Option A
Solution (By Examveda Team)
$$\eqalign{ & 59x + 14y - 112 = 0 \cr & \Rightarrow 59x + 14y = 112 \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{{59x}}{{112}} + \frac{{14y}}{{112}} = 1 \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{x}{{\frac{{112}}{{59}}}} + \frac{y}{8} = 1 \cr & \therefore y{\text{ - intercept of the line is }}8 \cr} $$This Question Belongs to Arithmetic Ability >> Coordinate Geometry
