A certain line has the equation ax + by = c where a>0, b<0, and c<0. state the x - and y-intercepts, and the slope

Ax + by = c ... a > 0, b < 0, c < 0 ... this means a is positive and b and c are negative

ax - by = - c

to find the x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x

ax - b (0) = - c

ax = - c

x = - c/a < = = ur x int

ax - by = - c

-by = - ax - c

y = a/bx + c/b ... slope = a/b, y int = c/b <==
