Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given points.

(12,0) and (0.4)
The equation of the line is
(Simplify your answer. Type your answer in slope-intercept form. Use integers or fractions for any numbers in the equation.)

Answer 1

Solution,

x intercept (a) = 12

y intercept(b) = 4

Using slope intercept form,

x/a +y/b =1

or, x/12 +y/4 = 1

or, x+3y=12

This is the required equation of the line.
