The linear equation that has a slope of -7 and crosses the x-axis at (3, 0) is:
y = -7x + 21
<h3>
How to find the linear equation?</h3>
A general linear equation is:
y = a*x +b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
The slope must be equal to the limit found in part a, and you say that it is equal to -7, so the slope is -7. And for how is written the problem, I understand that it crosses the x-axis at x = 3.
Then we will have:
y = -7*x + b
Such that, when x = 3, y = 0, then:
0 = -7*3 + b
21 = b
Then the linear equation is y = -7x + 21
