The equation y+6=1/3(x-9) is written in point-slope form. What is the equation written in slope-intercept form?

loris [4]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

y + 6 = $\frac{1}{3}$ (x - 9) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 6 = $\frac{1}{3}$ x - 3 ← subtract 6 from both sides

y = $\frac{1}{3}$ x - 9 ← in slope- intercept form
