Answer:
Slope = 1.200/2.000 = 0.600
x-intercept = 34/3 = 11.33333
y-intercept = 34/-5 = -6.80000
Step-by-step explanation:
1.1 Solve 3x-5y-34 = 0
Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).
"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.
In this formula :
y tells us how far up the line goes
x tells us how far along
m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is
b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis
The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line 3x-5y-34 = 0 and calculate its properties
Geometric figure: Straight Line
Slope = 1.200/2.000 = 0.600
x-intercept = 34/3 = 11.33333
y-intercept = 34/-5 = -6.80000
