Question

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

Answer 1

You will use the point-slope formula:

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

Answer 2

I don't know math what so ever

Answer 3

M is the slope (-1/3). y1 is your y-value (-4) and x1 is your x-value(6).

Answer 4

so that's my final answer?

Answer 5

I'm here to help haha. I can't just give you the answer. It's against the rules. So I'll try to explain as best as I can.

Answer 6

Lol, you can break rules

Answer 7

Let's just try. This is really easy. You just plug in and solve.

So, if you have your m (-1/3), your y1 (-4) and your x1 (6), you can plug in to the equation.

Answer 8

You should get:

y- (-4) = -1/3 (x-6)

Answer 9

such a life saver <3

Answer 10

So, simplify:

y+4=-1/3x+2

Answer 11

Lol we're not done haha.

Answer 12

Lol what the heck its more ?
