Find the equation of the line with slope 3/7 and that passes through the point (-14,0) Write your answer in the form y = mx + b
Solution 1:
We can plug the point that's given into the equation y=mx+b. So we have
0=m(-14)+b
Then we have 3/7 as m because m represents the slope.
0=3/7(-14)+b
Then you need to solve the equation for b.
After you get the value for b then you put the slope and the value for b in the equation.
Solution 2:
We can instantly see that (-14, 0) is the y-intercept so we don''t need to solve for b we already know the value.
