Consider the line L with slope −m, where m>0, passing through the point (3,5).
Give an expression in terms of m for
(i) the x-intercept of the line,
(ii) the y-intercept of the line.
The line L forms a triangle with the coordinate axes.
Show that the area of this triangle is A=2m9m2+30m+25.
Find the minimum possible area of the triangle.
