Answer:

Equation of the line is,

y = x/3 + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,a line passing through (-6, 5) and having a slope of 1/3

Points to remember

The equation of a line passing through the point (x₁, y₁) with slope m is given by

(y - y1)/(x - x₁) = m

<u>To find the equation of line</u>

here x₁ = -6, y₁ = 5 and m = 1/3

(y - y1)/(x - x₁) = m

(y - 5)/(x - - 6) = 1/3

(y - 5)/(x + 6) =1/3

y = x/3 + 7

Answer:

y = 1/3 x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given; the line is passing through, (-6,5) and the slope is 1/3

We can get its equation;

We would take, a point (x,y) and the given point (-6,5)

Therefore; Since slope = Δy/Δx

Then;

(5-y)/ (-6-x) = 1/3

3(5-y) = -6 -x

15 - 3y = -6 - x

we get;

3y = 6 + x + 15

3y = x + 21

Therefore;

<u>y = 1/3 x + 7</u>

Can some help with this question
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

y + 1 = 3(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given point is (1,-1) meaning that x1 = 1 and y1 = -1

The slope of this line is m = 3 because we go up 3 and over to the right 1 (eg: go from the point (1,-1) to (2,2) to see this in action)

Plug these three pieces of info into the point slope formula below

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

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

y + 1 = 3(x - 1)

Tell whether the equation has one, zero, or infinitely many solutions:<br>9(x - 4) +15=9x – 21​
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides, subtract 9x, and add 21x to both sides and you will get 0 = 0 so there is infinite solutions.
