A straight line passes through the point (2,1) and has a gradient of 3. Find the co-ordinates where the line crosses the x and y axes

m=3 y1=1 x1=2 y-y1=m(x-x1) y-1=3(x-2) y-1=3x-6 y=3x-5 at the x-axis, y=0. Sub in to find the x co-ordinate: 0=3x-5 x=5/3. Hence the co-ordinates at which the line crosses the x axis are (5/3,0) at the y-axis...
