The general form of a linear equation is ax + by = c, where a and b are not simultaneously zero. (a) Find the x- and y-intercepts using the general form (substitute 0 for x, then 0 for y). Based on what you see, when does the intercept method work most efficiently? (b) Find the slope and y-intercept using the general form (solve for y). Based on what you see, when does the slope-intercept method work most efficiently?
