Question

find the equation for the line that passes through (10, 10) that has slope -1/3. give your answer in point-slope form. you do not need to simplify.

Answer 1

Y - 10 =(-1/3) ( X - 10 )

Y = ( -1/3) X + ( 40/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The basic form of Slope Intercept equation is

$Y - Y_{1} = m ( X - X_{1})$

Step 2:

Points are (10,10) and m=-1/3

Y-10 = (-1/3)(X-10)

Y = ( (-X + 10 )/3) + 10

Y    =( - X / 3 )  +( 40 / 3)
