Question

Find an equation for the line that is described in y=mx+b form:
has x-intercept 6 and y-intercept 5

Answer 1

@satellite73 Could you help me with this problem please?

Answer 2

translate this problem as
Find the equation of the line with the points \((6,0)\) and \((0,5)\)

Answer 3

the \(y\) intercept is given to you, it is \(5\) so all you really need to find is the slope \(m\) in order to write it as
\[y=mx+5\]

Answer 4

you ok with finding the slope?

Answer 5

yes I am! thanks for clearing that up for me!
