Question

The equation of the line in the xy-plane that has slope 7/6 and passes through (9.-6) is

Answer 1

Answer:

0 = 7x-6y -99

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 7/6x+b

Using the point

-6 = 7/6(9) +b

-6 = 7*3/2 +b

-6 = 21/2 +b

Subtract 21/2 from each side

-12/2 -21/2 = b

-33/2 = b

y= 7/6x -33/2

Multiply each side by 6

6y = 7x - 99

Subtract 6y from each side

0 = 7x-6y -99
