Hi,
*Note: slope intercept form of an equation of a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the value of y where the line crosses the y axis
.
slope =5/6, y intercept is(0,-7)
y+=+%285%2F6%29x+-7
.
Standard form of an equation of a line is:
Ax + By = C, where A > 0
.
6y - 5x = -42

slope=5/6,y intercept is(0,-7) find the equation
            y = mx + b

y = (  m  )x + (            b              ) 
       |                    |
y = (slope)x + (y-coordinate of y-intercept)
       |                    | 
y = ( 5/6 )x + (           -7              )

            y = 5%2F6%29x + (-7)

            y = 5%2F6%29x -7
