(6,4) and (-3,-8)
Let's get the slope between these two points and then write an equation of the line through them....
slope = m = [ -8 -4] / [-3 - 6] = -12/-9 = 4/3
Using one of the points, we can write the equation of the line as follows :
y - y1 = m ( x - x1)
where (x1, y1) = (6,4) [we could have used the other point, as well ].....so we have
y - 4 = (4/3)(x - 6)
y - 4 = (4/3)x - 8 add 4 to both sides
y = (4/3)x - 4
To find the y intercept, let x = 0 ......
y = (4/3)(0) - 4 = -4 ........so the y intercept is (0, -4)
To find the x intercept, let y = 0
0 = (4/3)x - 4 add 4 to bot sides
4 = (4/3)x multiply both sides by 3/4
3 = x so.....the x intercept is (3, 0)
