Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (6, -6) and has a slope of – 5/3?

Answer 1

Answer:

• y = -5/3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point-slope equation:

• y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where (x₁, y₁) is the given point

The line is:

• y - (-6) = -5/3(x - 6)
• y + 6 = -5/3x + 10
• y = -5/3x + 4
