Question 63824
Write an equation of the line that has each pair of intercepts.

x-intercept: -3, y-intercept: 5
To find the equation of a line you need a point and a slope.  You don't have a slope, so find it using the slope formula: {{{highlight(m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1))}}}
(x1,y1)=(-3,0)  and (x2,y2)=(0,5)
{{{m=(5-0)/(0-(-3))}}}
{{{m=5/3}}}
The slope intercept form of a line is {{{highlight(y=mx+b)}}}, where m=slope and b=y-intercept.
m=5/3 and b=5
{{{highlight(y=(5/3)x+5)}}}
Happy Calculating!!!!
