Question

How do you write the equation in point slope form given y-intercept of (0,-3) and x-intercept of (-5,0)?

Answer 1

The equation of the line is `y= -3/5x-3`

Explanation:

The slope `= (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)= (0-(-3))/(-5-0)= -3/5` y-intercept is`=-3`. Hence the equation of the line is `y= -3/5x-3` graph{-3/5x-3 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}[Ans]
