You can
put this solution on YOUR website!Because the graph is almost in standard form, add 18 to each side of the equation, and write it as:
5x-6y = 18
Find the y intercept, which would be x=0, y = -3.
Find the x intercept, which would be y=0, x = 18/5 or 3 3/5 or 3.6
Check your result against the graph below:
| Solved by pluggable solver: DESCRIBE a linear EQUATION: slope, intercepts, etc |
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. 18/5 = 3.6.
- Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is 18/-6 = -3.
- Slope is -5/-6 = 0.833333333333333.
- Equation in slope-intercept form: y=0.833333333333333*x+-3.
