You can put this solution on YOUR website!

Not sure what you want, so I'm giving you this. You forgot the table.


Solved by pluggable solver: DESCRIBE a linear EQUATION: slope, intercepts, etc
Equation 2+x+%2B+1+y+=+5 describes a sloping line. For any
equation ax+by+c = 0, slope is -a%2Fb+=+-2%2F1.
  • X intercept is found by setting y to 0: ax+by=c becomes ax=c. that means that x = c/a. 5/2 = 2.5.
  • Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is 5/1 = 5.
  • Slope is -2/1 = -2.
  • Equation in slope-intercept form: y=-2*x+5.
