Question

what is the equation of a line, in point-slope form, that passes through (5, -3) and has a slope of 2/3? please help me

Answer 1

y + 3 = $\frac{2}{3}$ (x - 5)

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m ( x - a )

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

here m =$\frac{2}{3}$ and (a,b) = (5 , - 3 )

y + 3 = $\frac{2}{3}$ (x - 5 ) ← in point-slope form
