+ <span>Write the equation for the line that will pass through both points (-2, 2) and (8, 9). We call the equation y=ax+b So we have 2 equations: 2= -2a+b or b=2a+2 and the second: 9=8a+b or 9= 8a+ 2a+2 or 10a=9-2 10a=7 or a=7/10 and b= 2a+2=2*7/10+2=17/5
and the equation: y= 7/10x+17/5 + x=0, y= 17/5 is </span><span>y-intercepts + y=0, x= -17/5: 7/10= - 34/7 is x</span><span>-intercepts</span>
