Question

Write the equation of the line with a slope of -1/3 and passing through the point (6, -4)

Answer 1

Try using this formula..

\[y-y _{1}= m(x- x _{1})\]

Answer 2

Use this formula

y-y1 =m(x-x1)

\[y +4 = \frac{ -1 }{ 3 }(x-6)\]

sovle for y.

Answer 3

m = slope.
x1 and y1 are coordinates..

Answer 4

Yeah I know to use the formula I just wanted to confirm I was right

Answer 5

Your right.
