Write a slope- intercept equation for a line that passes through (5,0) and (-3,6)

Question

It’s a math equation in fundamentals of math where you need to write a slope intercept equation

Answer 1

Slope = (6 - 0) / (-3-5) = 6/(-8) = -3/4

Equation of line: y = (-3/4)x + b

Since (5,0) is on the line, 0 = (-3/4)(5) + b

b = 15/4

Equation of line: y = (-3/4)x + (15/4)

Answer 2

Slope is rise/run; so you've got -6/8.
