For the linear equation y = 14 - 20x, explain what the y-intercept and slope represent in terms of the graph of the equation.
◦ The y-intercept, b0 = 14, gives the y-value at which the straight line y = 14 - 20x intersects the y-axis. The slope, b1 = -20, indicates that the y-value decreases by 20 units for every increase in x of 1 unit.
◦ The y-intercept, b0 = 14, gives the y-value at which the straight line y = 14 - 20x intersects the y-axis. The slope, b1 = -20, indicates that the x-value decreases by 20 units for every increase in y of 1 unit.
