  1. Equation of a line whose slope and y-intercept is given by:

    y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

    (i) Given: slope = 3, y-intercept = – 5

    ⇒ y = 3x + (-5)

    Hence, the equation of line is y = 3x – 5.

    (ii) Given: slope = -2/7, y-intercept = 3

    ⇒ y = (-2/7)x + 3

    y = (-2x + 21)/7

    7y = -2x + 21

    Hence, the equation of line is 2x + 7y – 21= 0.

    (iii) Given: gradient = √3, y-intercept = -4/3

    ⇒ y = √3x + (-4/3)

    y = (3√3x – 4)/3

    3y = 3√3x – 4

    Hence, the equation of line is 3√3x – 3y – 4 = 0.

    (iv) Given: inclination = 30°, y-intercept = 2

    Slope = tan 30o = 1/√3

    ⇒ y = (1/√3)x + 2

    y = (x + 2√3)/ √3

    √3y = x + 2√3

    Hence, the equation of line is x – √3y + 2√3 = 0.
