Question 1066978: Passing through left parenthesis 9 comma 6 right parenthesis(9,6) with x-intercept 5 Found 2 solutions by Edwin McCravy, josgarithmetic:Answer by Edwin McCravy(20056) (Show Source):
"x-intercept 5" means the point (5,0).
Use the slope formula:
where (x1,y1) = (5,0)
and where (x2,y2) = (9,6)
Now use the point-slope formula:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where (x1,y1) = (5,0)
y - 0 = (x - 5)
y = (x - 5)
