\n" ); document.write( "my answer was y+3=2/3(x-6)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
This is correct. You might want to write it in either standard form or slope-intercept form.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I like slope-intercept form, because of graphing calculators today.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B3=+%282%2F3%29%2A%28x-6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B3+=+%282%2F3%29%2Ax+-+%282%2F3%29%2A6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B3+=+%282%2F3%29%2Ax+-+4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 3 from each side:
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B3+-+3=+%282%2F3%29%2Ax+-+4+-+3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=+%282%2F3%29%2Ax+-+7\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A good way to check this is to substitute the value of x in the equation, and see if you get the y value. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+%282%2F3%29%2A6+-7\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+4-7+=+-3\", which checks!\r
