Question 627128: Find the slope intercept form for the line satisfying the following conditions:
x-intercept 2, intercept 2/5
The slope-intercept from for the line is ______
I am not looking for the answer, just the way to find the answer.

The x-intercept is 2. So one point is (2, 0)

The y-intercept is 2/5, so another point is (0, 2/5)

So you need to find the equation of the line that goes through (2, 0) and (0, 2/5).

This equation is in the form y = mx+b where b is the y-intercept.

So you need the to find the slope m

Hope this helps. Let me know if it doesn't. Thanks.
