Point Slope Form: m=%28y%5B2%5D-y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D-x%5B1%5D%29
Points: (0,0) and (-6,_5)
Subst.: m=%28-5-0%29%2F%28-6-0%29=-5%2F-6
highlight%28m=5%2F6%29, ANSWER
Line eqn: via Slope intercept form:
y=%285%2F6%29x%2Bb
Thru points (0,0): --->b=0 y-intercept
As we see in the graph,
---> y=%285%2F6%29x
.
Thank you,
