You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Because this line has an x-intercept of 5 and a y intercept of -4, you know two points of the line: (5,0) and (0,3).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Using these two points, you can find slope:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"m+=+rise%2Frun+=+%283-0%29+%2F+%280-5%29+=+-3%2F5\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now that you know slope and the y-intercept, plug them into the equation of a line:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+mx+%2B+b\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+%28-3%2F5%29x+%2B3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Change it to standard form:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%283%2F5%29x+%2B+y+=+3\"\r
