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. 22/-6 = -3.66666666666667.
- Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is 22/1 = 22.
- Slope is --6/1 = 6.
- Equation in slope-intercept form: y=6*x+22.
