Question

which equations correctly represent a line that has a slope of -2/3 and passes through the points (–2, 8) and (1, 6)?

A. y – 2 = -2/3(x + 8)
B. y + 2 = -2/3(x – 8)
C. y – 6 = -2/3(x – 1)
D. y – 1 = -2/3(x – 6)

Answer 1

use this formula \
(y-y1) = m (x-x1)
this above formula is called point slope form
in the question slope is given
m=-2/3
now u can take any one point from the above question's two points{ (-2,8) , (1,6) }
so i take the ( 1,6 )
now just put it in the above formula

Answer 2

@rio96 is it A ?

Answer 3

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)
m=-2/3
i choose randomly this point (1,6)
okay?
now i m going to put it into the above formula
y-6 =-2/3 (x-1)

i solved this question
the correct answer is C
