If slope of a line is 4 and x-intercept made by the line is 2 then the equation of line will be __________(a) y = 4x-8(b) y = 4x+8(c) y = 2x+4(d) y = 2x-4This question was posed to me in class test.My doubt stems from General Equation of a Line topic in chapter Straight Lines of Mathematics – Class 11

Answer»

The correct option is (a) y = 4x-8

The BEST EXPLANATION: Let general equation of line be y=m*x + c.

Given m=4 and VALUE of x when y=0 is 2.

C= – m*2 = -4*2 = -8.

=>y=4x-8.
