Question

Write the equation in standard form of the line that has x-intercept 3 andy-intercept 5.

Answer 1

Answer:

Y = (-5/3)x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Label the points

(0,5), (3,0)

Use point slope

y − y1 = m(x − x1)

(5 - 0) = m(0 - 3)

Solve

Slope: -5/3

Plug in 0 for x to find the needed b

5 = (-5/3)(0) + b

b = 5
