The y-intercept of a line is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. To find the y-intercept from the equation \( y = -10x + 14 \), we can set \( x = 0 \) and solve for \( y \).

Substituting \( x = 0 \) into the equation:

\[ y = -10(0) + 14 \]

\[ y = 14 \]

Therefore, the y-intercept is \( 14 \). In coordinate form, the y-intercept is the point \( (0, 14) \).
