You can put this solution on YOUR website!
m=(1/3-0)/(0-2)
m=(1/3)/(-2)
m=1/3*-1/2
m=-1/6

Can someone help me find the slope-intercept form for the line satisfying the following conditions?
x-intercept 2, y-intercept 1/3
------
You have two points (2,0) and (0,1/3)
-----
Equation:
x/2 + y/(1/3) = 1
------
Modify:
x/2 + 3y = 1
---
y = (-x/6) + 1/3
