passes through (6,1), parallel to the line with x-intercept -3 and y-intercept 5
solutions
equation of straight line x intercept -3 and y intercept5
x/-3+y/5=1
5x-3y=-15
3x+15=5y or 3x-5y+15=0
y=3/5x+3 slope is 3/5 line require to find equation is parallel to this line slope of such line will be 3/5 as m1=m2 for parallel line
equation of line passing through(6,1) and slope will be 3/5
y-1=3/5(x=6)
5y-5=-3x-18
3x-5y-13=0
3x-5y-13=0

He's WRONG, once GAIAN!!
Most of what this person does in this forum just doesn't make sense!! So, BEWARE!!
Slope of line with x-intercept - 3 [point: (- 3, 0)], and y-intercept 5 [point: (0, 5)]:
Equation with same slope 5%2F3, and passing through point (6, 1):
