Given:
'a' and 'b' are the intercepts made by a straight-line with the co-
ordinate axes.
3a = b and the line pass through the point (1, 3).
To find:
The equation of the line.
Solution:
The intercept form of a line is
...(i)
where, a is x-intercept and b is y-intercept.
We have, 3a=b.
...(ii)
The line pass through the point (1, 3). So, putting x=1 and y=3, we get
Multiply both sides by a.
The value of a is 2. So, x-intercept is 2.
Putting a=2 in 
, we get
The value of b is 6. So, y-intercept is 6.
Putting a=2 and b=6 in (i), we get
Therefore, the equation of the required line in intercept form is .

Answer:
2 1/2 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportion says the ratio of one thing to another is the same for different amounts. Here, we want cups, so we can use the proportion ...
cups/people = 2/12 = x/15 . . . . . where x is the number we want to find
Multiplying by 15 gives ...
x = 15(2/12) = 5/2 = 2 1/2
You will need 2 1/2 cups of zucchini to feed 15 people with the same recipe.
Hello!
To find the slope we divide the difference of the y-values by the difference of the x-values as shown below.
The slope of our line is -3/4.
I hope this helps!
