find equation of the line if it passes through (2,3) and with x-intercept twice the y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "x-intercept: (2k,0)
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept: (0,k)
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "slope = (k-0)/(0-2k) = -1/2
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Form: y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"b\":
\n" ); document.write( "3 = (-1/2)2 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b = 3+1 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "=======
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-1/2)x + 4
\n" ); document.write( "==============================
