Write an equation of the line that has each pair of intercepts.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x-intercept: -3, y-intercept: 5
\n" ); document.write( "To find the equation of a line you need a point and a slope. You don't have a slope, so find it using the slope formula: \"highlight%28m=%28y2-y1%29%2F%28x2-x1%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(x1,y1)=(-3,0) and (x2,y2)=(0,5)
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%285-0%29%2F%280-%28-3%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=5%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "The slope intercept form of a line is \"highlight%28y=mx%2Bb%29\", where m=slope and b=y-intercept.
\n" ); document.write( "m=5/3 and b=5
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=%285%2F3%29x%2B5%29\"
