Algebra.Com's Answer #366842 by KMST(5328)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! I agree with your solution so far, except that I would write \n" ); document.write( "y=-4/(-6x)+-5/6 where I read y=-4/6x+-5/6 \n" ); document.write( "I guess it was somehow changed in entering it, but y=2/3x-5/6 anyway.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "With \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
