A line has a slope of $m,$ and its $y$-intercept is $(0,b)$. If $m = 8$ and $b = 14,$ then what is the $x$-intercept of the line?

The line in y = Mx+b form is then 

       Y = 8x +14           The x-axis intercept occurs when y = 0     Put in y = o 

       0 = 8x + 14 

        X = -14/8  = - 1 3/4      <==== x intercept
