Answer :
Answer:
- General equation of a line is given by y = mx +c, where m is the gradient /slope, c is the intercept. To find for the intercept on y- axis, put x = 0.
- [tex]y = \frac{6(0)}{5 } + 27 \\ y = \frac{0}{5} + 27 \\ y = 27 \\ therefore \: the \: intercept \: on \: y \: is \: 27 \\ [/tex]
- By comparison,
- [tex]y = mx + \: c \\ y = \frac{6}{5} x \: +27 \\ m = \frac{6}{5 \: } \: \\ hence \: slope \: is \: \frac{6}{5} [/tex]
