Find the slope-intercept form for the line satisfying the conditions.
How do I solve this.
x-intercept -10, y-intercept-6
**
standard form of equation for a straight line: y=mx+b, m=slope, b=y-intercept
y-intercept=-6 (given)
To find the slope, start from the y-intercept, go 6 units up and 10 units left (rise/run)
This will give you a slope of 6/-10 or -3/5
Equation: y=-3x/5-6 (slope-intercept form for the line)
