B(6, 2), m = - 1/2
Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Start from y = mx + b and plug in what you know...we get
2 = (-1/2)(6) + b
2 = -3 + b
b = 5
Thus we have
y = (-1/2)x + 5
Multiply by 2 and get
2y = -x + 10
and add x to get
x + 2y = 10
and we're done...
