You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Find the slope, x-intercept, and y-intercept for the line 8x−3y−17=0 .
\n" ); document.write( "Note: Your answers must be decimals.
\n" ); document.write( "***
\n" ); document.write( "8x−3y−17=0
\n" ); document.write( "This is an equation of a straight line of the standard form:y=mx+b, m=slope, b= y-intercept.
\n" ); document.write( "For given equation:
\n" ); document.write( "3y=8x-17
\n" ); document.write( "y=(8/3)x-17/3
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "slope=8/3=2.6667
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept=-17/3=-5.6667
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "x-intercept
\n" ); document.write( "set y=0
\n" ); document.write( "8x-17=0
\n" ); document.write( "8x=17
\n" ); document.write( "x=17/8=2.1250
\n" ); document.write( "x-intercept=2.1250 \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
