Question 684139: A line with x-intercept -3 and y-intercept k passes through the point (5,8). Find the value of k.
Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x intercept is (-3, 0)
y intercept is (0, k)
and
point (5, 8)
...
Use x intercept and point to find slope
...
Use y intercept and x intercept and slope to solve for k
...
-k = 1(-3)
-k = -3
