Question 1127876
---------
The x-intercept of a line is 8 more than the y-intercept of a line and the slope is -2/3. What is the equation for the line?
----------



Points  ( b+8, 0 )  and  ( 0,  b ).


SLOPE,  {{{(b-0)/(0-(b+8))=-2/3}}}


{{{b/(-b-8)=-2/3}}}


{{{b/(b+8)=2/3}}}


{{{3b=2(b+8)}}}


{{{3b=2b+16}}}


{{{b=16}}}
