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. 6/-1 = -6.
- Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is 6/3 = 2.
- Slope is --1/3 = 0.333333333333333.
- Equation in slope-intercept form: y=0.333333333333333*x+2.
