Chapter 12, Problem 4CR

To determine

To find: The equation of the line with slope and intercept.

Answer to Problem 4CR

The equation of given line is $\left(y=5x-10\right)$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Slop of the given line is $5$ and the $x$ -intercept is $2$ .

Calculation:

Slop of the line is $5$ .

  $m=5$

And the $x$ -intercept is $2$ . That is one point on line is $\left(2,0\right)$ .

Therefore, $x=2,y=0$

If we put these values in equation $\left(1\right),$ we will get the value of $c$ .

  $\begin{array}{c}0=5\times 2+c\\ c=-10\end{array}$

Therefore, the equation of given line is $\left(y=5x-10\right)$ .
