Question

which is an equation for the line with slope 1/3 through (-2,1) ?

a.y=1/3x+1
b.y=1/3x+5/3
c.y=1/3x-5/3
d.y=1/3x+1/3

Answer 1

(y-y1)=1/3(x-x1)
y-(1)=1/3(x-(-2))
y-1 = 1/3(x+2)
y-1=1/3x + 1/3(2)
y-1 = 1/3x + 2/3
y= 1/3x + 2/3 +1

combine like terms and that is your answer @jkev1

Answer 2

Answer 3

.y=1/3x-5/3 @jackellyn ?
