Question

A line passes through the points (-3,-4) and (6,2)

What is the x intercept of this line?

Answer 1

Answer: x - int : (3,0)

Explanation:

point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

= -4-2/-3-6

=-6/-9

= 2/3

y1 = 2

x1 =6

y - 2 = 2/3(x-6)

x -int: when y = 0, what is x?

0-2 = 2/3(x-6)

-2 = 2/3x - 4

2 = 2/3x

x=3
