Question

Find the equation of the line, whose slope is 5 and x- intercept is 2

Answer 1

Explanation:

when x intercept is points given, then y = 0

So far, you have y = 5x + b where b = the yintercept

x = 2

y = 0

0 = 5x + b

0 =5 * 2 + b

0 = 10 + b Subtract 10 from both sides.

-10 = b

Equation: y = 5x - 10
