Question

Write the equation for the line that passes through the point (-6, 2)

Answer 1

The equation of the line that passes through the points (-6 , 2) and (-4 , -1) is 3x + 2y = -14 .

In the question ,

two points are given as  (-6 , 2) and (-4 , -1) .

we need to find the equation of the line passing through the given points .

to find the equation First we need to find the slope  ,

slope = (-1-2)/(-4-(-6))

slope = -3/(-4 + 6)

slope = -3/2

So , the equation of the line passing through the point (-6 , 2) with slope -3/2 is  

(y - 2) = (-3/2)(x - (-6))

y - 2 = (-3/2)(x + 6)

y - 2 = (-3/2)x - 9

y = (-3/2)x - 9 + 2

y = (-3/2)x - 7

2y = -3x - 14

3x + 2y = -14

Therefore , The equation of the line that passes through the points (-6 , 2) and (-4 , -1) is 3x + 2y = -14 .

The given question is incomplete , the complete question is
