Question 526271: Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (6, -2) and has a slope of -2/3
Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You cannot write the equation of a line. You can write as many forms of a possible infinite number of forms of an equation whose solution set is the set of points that comprise a line through a given point and with a given slope as you like.
Use the point-slope form of an equation of a line:
where
are the coordinates of the given point and
is the given slope.
Then you can put your answer into whatever form(s) you like.
