Question 264596: hi okay so like im really confues with my mathe homework and so im supposoed to change slope intercept from to point slope. the problem is:
y = -2/3x + 2
i need to change that to point slope form.
please show me the work .
Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = -2/3x + 2
Y=mX+b where m=slope & b=the Y intercept.
You already have the slope=-2/3.
Setting Y=0 & solve for X.
0=-2/3X+2
-2X/3=-2 CROSS MULTIPLY
-2X=-2*3
-2X=-6
X=-6/-2
X=3 ANS.
Y=-2/3*3+2
Y=-6/6=-1 ANS.
THE POINT IS (3,-1) WITH A SLOPE=-2/3.
