Question

Intersecting the x axis at a distance of 3 unit to the left of the original with slope -2

Answer 1

Hi ,

According to the problem given ,


Line intersecting x - axis at ( x1 , y1 ) =

( -3, 0 ),

Whose slope ( m ) = -2 ,

Equation of a line is

y - y1 = m( x - x1 )

y - 0 = ( -2 ) [ x - ( - 3 )]

y = -2 ( x + 3 )

y + 2( x + 3 ) = 0

2x + y + 6 = 0

I hope this helps you.

:)

Answer 2

y=-2(x+3)
y=-2x-6is the eq of line
