Algebra.Com's Answer #149394 by anantha(86) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! SOL: \n" ); document.write( "Equation of the line having slope m and making an intercept c on y axis is y=mx+c \n" ); document.write( "y=mx+c is straight line \n" ); document.write( "it cuts y axis at the point (0,c) \n" ); document.write( "m is the slope \n" ); document.write( "let f(x)=y \n" ); document.write( "f(x)=-8x-10 \n" ); document.write( "y=-8x-10 \n" ); document.write( "comparing this with y=mx+c \n" ); document.write( "here m=-8,c=-10 \n" ); document.write( "slope=-8,y-intercept(0,c)=(0,-10) \n" ); document.write( " |
