SOLUTION: Check whether the line 3x-2y+9 passes through the point (1,6). Write down the equation of line through (3,7) and of slope 3/2?

Question 1020205: Check whether the line 3x-2y+9 passes through the point (1,6). Write down the equation of line through (3,7) and of slope 3/2?

I will assume that you meant 3x - 2y + 9 = 0.
Substituting the coordinates of the point into the equation, we get
3*1 - 2*6 + 9 =3 - 12 +9 = 0,
and so the point (1,6) is a point on the line.
By the point-slope form ,
==> , or 2y - 14 = 3x - 9
or3x-2y+5 = 0.
