Question

A line passes through the point (6, -1) and has a slope of 3/2 Write an equation in slope-intercept form

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 3/2x -10

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope equation can be written ...

  y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . for a line with slope m through point (h, k)

Using the given values, this is ...

  y = (3/2)(x -6) -1 = 3/2x -9 -1

  y = 3/2x -10 . . . . . slope-intercept equation
