that's a long way to go and I do not know why you have to go through the length of converting 12 into 60/5
\[
\sf \huge \frac{6}{5} \times \frac{12}{1}
\]

6/5(12) = 72/5
or 14.4
:)

cant be a decimal
OpenStudy (dmndlife24):
Well...it is
OpenStudy (dmndlife24):
why CAN't it be??

do you know how to multiply and divide?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y-14=-6/5(x+12)
put in slope intercept form
OpenStudy (nincompoop):
what the f#%ck
OpenStudy (nincompoop):
that is completely different from what you posted
OpenStudy (dmndlife24):
Woah...WUT?

don't you have to multiply 6/5 by 12 anyways?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What you have their now is an equation of a line. What do you have to do with it?
OpenStudy (dmndlife24):
y=-6/5x + 142/5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
says its wrong
OpenStudy (dmndlife24):
WHAT is wrong??

Still do not understand. What is the question specifically that you have to do with this line equation?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
just solve for y?
OpenStudy (dmndlife24):
It's in slope-int. form just like you needed...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I dont understand either

You y intercept is wrong in slope-intercept form
\[y-14 = \frac{ -6 }{ 5 }(x + 12)\]
\[y-14 = \frac{ -6 }{ 5 }x - \frac{ 36 }{ 5 }\]
Get 14 to have a common denominator of 5 which is 70/5
\[y - \frac{ 70 }{ 5 } = \frac{ -6 }{ 5 }x - \frac{ 36 }{ 5 }\]
\[y = \frac{ -6 }{ 5 }x + \frac{ 34 }{ 5 }\]
