What is the equation of the line which includes points (2, 6) and (0, 0)? y = -3x + 1 y = -3x y = 3x y = 3x + 1

Is it c?

\(\bf \begin{array}{lllll} &x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\ &({\color{red}{ 2}}\quad ,&{\color{blue}{ 6}})\quad &({\color{red}{ 0}}\quad ,&{\color{blue}{ 0}}) \end{array} \\\quad \\ slope = {\color{green}{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{{\color{blue}{ y_2}}-{\color{blue}{ y_1}}}{{\color{red}{ x_2}}-{\color{red}{ x_1}}} \\ \quad \\ y-{\color{blue}{ y_1}}={\color{green}{ m}}(x-{\color{red}{ x_1}})\qquad \textit{plug in the values and solve for "y"}\\ \qquad \uparrow\\ \textit{point-slope form}\)

is it not 3x?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

what did you get for the slope?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

oh h.. yeap..is 3x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c is correct?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf \begin{array}{lllll} &x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\ &({\color{red}{ 2}}\quad ,&{\color{blue}{ 6}})\quad &({\color{red}{ 0}}\quad ,&{\color{blue}{ 0}}) \end{array} \\\quad \\ slope = {\color{green}{ m}}= 3 \\ \quad \\ y-{\color{blue}{ 0}}={\color{green}{ 3}}(x-{\color{red}{ 0}})\implies y=3x\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so yeap
