Write the equation of the line, in standard form that has an x intercept at (3,0) and y
intercept at (0,-2). Show all work for credit.

Answer :

  • x intercept=a=3
  • y intercept=b=-2

We need the normal form first

[tex]\\ \rm\bull\rightarrowtail \dfrac{x}{a}+\dfrac{y}{b}=1[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\bull\rightarrowtail \dfrac{x}{3}-\dfrac{y}{2}=1[/tex]

Multiply by 6to bring standard form

[tex]\\ \rm\bull\rightarrowtail 2x-3y=1[/tex]
