Ineed with intercepts from a graph

Explanation: The y axis is the line that goes up and down, vertical. The x axis is the line that goes straight across, horizontal. So, when looking for intercepts we have to see what numbers your graphed line goes through.

Make sure when you are writing your points you write it in (x,y) form. If you don't it will be wrong.

So, for our x intercept it would be -7,0.

This is because your graphed line goes through x at -7 and it has no y, so that would be 0.

For your y intercept, it would be 0,2

This is because our line does not go through x, so we make that 0. It does go through y at 2.

Hope this helps :)

If you need elaboration on anything let me know. I know sometimes with math it is kind of hard to explain through typing.

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17
