Question

Write an equation of the line given the following conditions: // to x-3y=-12 & passes through the point (6,5)

Answer 1

If it is parallel, it has the same slope. The slope of the given line can be found by using the opposite of a divided by b or -1/-3 = 1/3

Answer 2

Now plug the slope and the given point into point-slope form:
y-5=1/3(x-6)
Multiply both sides by 3:
3y-15 = x-6
3y=x+9
y=1/3x+3
