Question

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

Answer: y=-x+6

Explanation:

slope=-1

y intercept (b) =6

y=mx+b

y=-1x+6

Answer 2

`y=-(6)/(7) x+6.`

Explanation:

1) if the point on the X- and Y-axis are A(7;0) and B(0;6), then it is possible to make up the equation of the line according to the rule:

`(x)/(X_A) +(y)/(Y_B) =1; \ => \ (x)/(7) +(y)/(6) =1.`

2) the slope-interception form of this line is:

`y=-(6)/(7) x+6.`
