jim_thompson5910 · Answer

that's the slope formula

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

this is point slope form

$$\Large y-y_1 = m(x - x_1)$$

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

look familiar?

countrygirl1431 · Answer

yeah

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

what is m?

countrygirl1431 · Answer

its the slope you use the other equation that i gave to get m

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

well they provided the slope in the instructions

countrygirl1431 · Answer

right i just dont know how to plug the numbers in to the formula the turn it into standard form

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

so first we replace m with 2/3

$$\Large y-y_1 = m(x - x_1)$$
$$\Large y-y_1 = \frac{2}{3}(x - x_1)$$
