Step 1.1

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Step 1.2.1.1

Apply the distributive property.

$y = 7 x + 7 \cdot - 2$

Step 1.2.1.2

Multiply $7$ by $- 2$ .

$y = 7 x - 14$

Step 2

Using the slope-intercept form, the y-intercept is $- 14$ .

$b = - 14$

Step 3

y-intercept in point form.

$(0, - 14)$
