x intercept is 8
I.e point is (8,0)
and given point is (-4,6)
hence, the equation is
(y-0)=0-6/[8-(-4)] (x-8)
y = -6/12 (x-8)
12y= -6x+48
6x+12y=48
dividing by 6
we get x+2y=8

we have x intercept=8-(8,0)
line passes through =(-4,6)
equation of line
y-0=6-0/-4-8(x-8)
-12y=6x-48
6x+12y-48

smitesh: can you tell answer only . i will explain it again
sofiaa11: but i still appreciate ur efforts thanks
sofiaa11: the answer is given this one only
sofiaa11: x+2y=8
smitesh: which
smitesh: ok
sofiaa11: ya
smitesh: Wait i send you the best answet
sofiaa11: okay u can write it once again
sofiaa11: actually i had also done the same mistake
