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.
