Question 1134496: Write the equation of the line that contains the indicated pair of points. Express the final equation in standard form. X intercept of 5 and y intercept of -45

X-intercept: (5,0)
Y-intercept: (0,-45)
Slope between two points: m=%28y2-y1%29%2F%28x2-x1%29
m=-45%2F-5
m=9

Knowing that the slope = 9 and y-intercept = -45, we can write the equation as:
y=9x-45
Rewrite our solution into standard form of linear equation: ax+by=c
9x-y=45
