What is the slope intercept form for x intercept 2, y intercept 1/3

Question

Find the slope intercept form for x intercept 2, y intercept 1/3

Answer 1

The x-intercept is the point on the x-axis. This point is (2,0). 
The y-intercept is the point on the y-axis. This point is (0, 1/3).

 

We need to find the slope of the line using these two points.

 

Slope = m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

 

m = ((1/3) - 0) / (0 - 2)

m = (1/3) / (-2)

m = -1/6

 

The equation of the line is

 

y = (-1/6)x + (1/3)
