Answer:
6x -5y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the 2-point form of the equation of a line to find it.
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
y = (6-0)/(6-1)(x -1) +0
y = 6/5(x -1) . . . . . . point-slope form
y = (6/5)x -6/5 . . . . slope-intercept form
5y = 6x -6
6x -5y = 6 . . . . . . . standard form
