प्रश्न
If the X and Y-intercepts of line L are 2 and 3 respectively, then find the slope of line L.
उत्तर
Given,
x-intercept of line L is 2 and
y-intercept of line L is 3
∴ the line L intersects X-axis at (2, 0) and Y-axis at (0, 3).
i.e. the line L passes through (2, 0) = (x1, y1) and (0, 3) = (x2, y2) say.
Slope of line L = `(y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)`
= `(3 - 0)/(0 - 2)`
= `(-3)/2`.
