Question 160010: Find an equation of the lne containing the given pair of points.
(1/6, -1/3) and (5/6, 5)
What is the equation of the line?
y= ______ Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Y=mX+b
(1/6, -1/3) and (5/6, 5)
SLOPE (m)=(5+1/3)/(5/6-1/6)
m=[(15+1)/3]/(4/6)
m=(16/3)*3/2
m=16/2
8 IS THE SLOPE.
5=8*5/6+b
5=40/6+b
b=5-40/6
b=5-20/3
b=(5*3-20)/3
b=(15-20)/3
b=-5/3 THE Y INTERCEPT.
THUS THE LINE EQUATION IS:
Y=8X-5/3 (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, 8x -5/3).
