The line with slope of -2/3 and containing B(6,-2)
Find:
m= -2/3
Point-slope form= ?
y+2 = (-2/3)(x-6)
===========================
Slope intercept form::
y = mx + b
Solve or "b":
-2 = (-2/3)6 + b
-2 = -4 + b
b = 2
-------
y = (-2/3)x + 2
===========================
Standard form= ?
3y = -2x + 6
--
2x + 3y = 6
