what is the equation for the line that has a slope of ⅕ and passes through the point (-⅔, ½)?

Answer 1

Explanation:

PART 1

y=mx+b

m is slope and slope is 0 sooo

y=0x+b

it passes through (3,7)

7=0(3)+b

7=0+b

b=7

y=0x+7

so just y=7

PART 2

y=mx+b

y=1/5x+b

1/2=1/5(-2/3)+b

1/2=-2/15+b

1/2+2/15=b

15/30+4/30=b

19/30=b

y=1/5x+19/30
