Question

What is the equation of a line in point-slope form that passes throught -8, 1 and has a slope of 5/6

Answer 1

Answer:

5x - 6y +36 =0 is the required equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

(x1, y1) =(-8, - 1)

Slope (m) =5/6

The equation is:

(y - y1) =m(x-x1)

y +1=5/6(x +8)

6y +6 =5x +40

5x - 6y +36 =0 is the required equation.

Hope this helps!!!!
