What is the equation of a line in general form that passes through the point (1,-2) and has a slope of 1/3

Mathematics

ser-zykov [4K]3 years ago

Answer:

(y+2) = (1/3)(x-1)  

Answer in point-slope form, you can rearrange this into the form which you need.

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that the general point-slope form of a linear equation looks like :

(y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)

where m is the slope and (x₁,y₁) is any point on the line

here we are given m = 1/3 and (x₁,y₁)=(1,-2)

simply substitute this info into the general equation above

(y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)

(y - (-2) ) = (1/3)(x - 1)

(y+2) = (1/3)(x-1)  Answer in point-slope form, you can rearrange this into the form which you need.

Y=-5x-30. 

Subtract from each side (1/5y=-x-6 )
Then multiply by 5/1 on both sides to get rid of the 1/5 (y=-5x-30)

3=7(4-2u)-6u can you help
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

, open the bracket

3=28-14u-6u

Collect like terms

3-28=-14u-6u

-25 =-20u

Divide both side by -20

u=-25/-20. Minus sign will cancel each other and reduce to the lowest term

u=5/4
