Question 40491: Use the slope-intercept method to graph
Answer by Nate(3500)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
is your y-intercept .... now, use your slope .... go five units up and three units to the right; also, go five units down and three units to the left .... connect the dots!
Solved by pluggable solver: DESCRIBE a linear EQUATION: slope, intercepts, etc
Equation describes a sloping line. For any
equation ax+by+c = 0, slope is .
  • X intercept is found by setting y to 0: ax+by=c becomes ax=c. that means that x = c/a. -3/-1.66666666666667 = 1.8.
  • Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is -3/1 = -3.
  • Slope is --1.66666666666667/1 = 1.66666666666667.
  • Equation in slope-intercept form: y=1.66666666666667*x+-3.
