Question

Write the equation of a line in point-slope form that has a slope of 1/3 and passes through the point
(-6, 0).

Answer 1

It seems to me that this is the last part that you don't seem to get for this.
\((x_1, y_1)\)So, \(x_1 = -6\) and \(y_1 = 0\)

Answer 2

Then just plug it into:
\[y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\]

Answer 3

0-0=1/3(-6-1/6)?

Answer 4

Not quite...
\[y - 0 = \frac13(x + 6)\]

Answer 5

ohh...yeah, this stuff is hard to understand sometimes. ty calcmat

Answer 6

np :)
