Question

Write equation in general form slope of 3 and y intercept of -5

Answer 1

3x - y - 5 = 0

Explanation:

The general form of the equation of a line is

Ax + By + C = 0 ( A, B, C are integers )

first express the equation in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = 3 and c = - 5, hence

y = 3x - 5 ← in slope-intercept form

subtract y from both sides

3x - y - 5 = 0 ← in general form
