Find an equation of the line having given slope and containing the given point.
m=6/7, (3,-6)
I'm having a problem. I can't solve the equation, I can only get to the steps below.
-----------------
y-(-6)=6/7(x-3) You're doing it right.
y+6 = (6/7)x - 18/7
y = (6/7)x - 60/7 Slope-intercept form
------------------
6x - 7y = 60 Standard form
