Question

A line has a slope of -2/3 and passes through the point (–3, 8). What is the equation of the line?

Answer 1

Answer:

y=-2/3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so the formula to find slope is y=mx+b, so we would start off by writing that. M in the equation represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

y=-2/3x+b

y=-2/3x+8

Answer 2

Equation: y= -2/3x+6. you but the coordinates where it is on the slope formula. 8=-2/3(-3)+b and then you solve for b. then you plug b in with the slope formula along with the slope. so it would be y=-2/3x+b
