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
.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Area of the base = 
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that volume of rectangular prism = (Area of base) x (Height)
or [Area of base] = [Volume]/[Height]
So basically we need to divide given area by given height to find the answer.
given height is (x+2) that means (x+2) must be factor of volume equation
or x=-2 must be root of volume equation so write down coefficients of volume equation then we divide by -2 as shown in attached picture.
Last digit on the right is always remainder.
Remaining coefficients {2, 5, -18} will give the area equation: 
Hence final answer is:
Area of the base = 
Answer:
Slope m = 2
y-intercept b = 100
Equation: y = 2x + 100
