Question

c.	Write a linear equation for the line. 
(4,0) (0,5)

parthkohli · Answer

First determine the slope.

$\Large \color{Black}{\Rightarrow slope = {\Delta y \over \Delta x } = {y_{2} - y_{1} \over x_{2} - x_{1}} }$

Then after you have done that, then determine the y-intercept by substituting and then setting x to 0.

Slope would be 5/-4

So far we know that the equation is y = 5x/-4 + b

Let's substitute.

0 = 5(4)/-4 + b
0 = -5 + b
b = 5

So the equation is:

$\Huge \color{Black}{\Rightarrow y = {5 \over -4}x + 5 }$
