Question 885033: Direction: Find an equation of each line with the given slope that passes through the given point. Write the equation in the form of Ax+By=C
Problem: M=3/2; (-5, 6)
I only got this far: M=3/2; (-5,6)
y-6=3/2(x-(-5)
y-6=3/2x+5

is correct.

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2



Distribute the 3 in the RHS



Add to both sides:



Standard form generally demands a positive lead coefficient, so multiply by -1
