The standard equation for a line is Y = mX + B.
\n" ); document.write( "Where m = the slope, and B = the Y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( "The given equation; f(x) = -5X + 2 is already in the standard form
\n" ); document.write( "-5 is the slope
\n" ); document.write( "2 is the Y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "The X-intecept is found when Y = 0, so set the equation equal to 0
\n" ); document.write( "\"0+=+-5X+%2B+2\" Subtract 2 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2+=+-5X\" Divide both sides by -5
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2F5+=+X\"
\n" ); document.write( "2/5 is the X-intercept\r
