Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,-9)(−9,−9) and (6,-7)(6,−7). Put your answer in fully simplified form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.

Answer 1

2x-15y = 117 is the simplified form of the equation.

Equation : In a mathematical sentence, if two expressions are present in left and right side of an equal sign, then the mathematical sentence is called an equation.

If, a, b, c be integers and x is x-intercept & y is y-intercept, then ax+by=c is called equation of line.

Given that, the equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,-9)(−9,−9) and (6,-7)(6,−7).

Now, (-9,-9) & (6, -7) have a line through them with slope = (-9+7)/(-9-6) = 2/15

Therefore, (y+7) = 2/15×(x-6)

⇒ y+7 = 2x/15 - 4/5

⇒ y = 2x/15 - 4/5 - 7

⇒ y = 2x/15 -39/5

This is the equation in slope intercept form.

Multiplying the equation with 15, we get,

⇒ 15y = 2x-117

⇒ 2x-15y = 117 , which is the simplified form of the equation.
