Question 769044
Write an equation in standard form with integer coefficients for the line with slope 17/20 going through the point (-2,-3).
----------
Form: y = mx + b
---
Solve for "b":
-3 = (17/20)(-2) +b
------
-(60/20) = (-35/20) + b
------
b = -15/20 = -3/4
-------
Equation:
y = (17/20)x - (3/4)
