To write an equation of line whose x- intercept is 3 and y -intercept is
Answer to Problem 35PPS
Slope intercept form
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
x- intercept of line is 3
And y -intercept of line is
Formula used:
Slope,
Slope intercept form
Calculation:
x- intercept of line
y -intercept of line is
Here
x- intercept means y-coordinate will be zero
y -intercept means x -coordinate will be zero
Then rewrite x and y intercept in coordinate form
x- intercept of line
y -intercept of line is
Here
Using slope formula to calculate slope of line
On solving
On solving
Using slope and any one of the point to find slope intercept form
Let take point
Here
Point-slope form
On solving
Hence, slope intercept form is
