SOLUTION: Here is the question: A line passes through the point (3,5) and the slope(m) is 2/3. Write the equation in point slope form.
Would this be the right solution?:
2(x-3)= 3(y-5

Question 180003: Here is the question: A line passes through the point (3,5) and the slope(m) is 2/3. Write the equation in point slope form.
Would this be the right solution?:
2(x-3)= 3(y-5)
I did this to get rid of the denominator from the fraction 2/3. We were taught to do it this way. Answer by Mathtut(3670) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! point slope form is y-k=m(x-h) ....where m is the slope and (h,k) is any point on the line
:
y-5=(2/3)(x-3)
:
y-5=(2/3)x-2
:
3y-15=2x-6......multiplied terms by 3 to get rid of fraction
:
2x-3y=-9.....is the standard form
:
y=(2/3)x+3..is point slope intercept form
:
so the answer to your question is YES but answers are usually in these two forms...GOOD JOB
