Question

Enter the equation of the line meeting the given conditions. Please put the equation in standard form. Containing C (3, 3) and D (-3, 2)

Answer 1

x - 6y = -15.

Explanation:

The slope of the line is rise / run = (3-2) / 3 - -3)

= 1/6.

Using the point (3,3) and the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line:

y - 3 = 1/6(x - 3)

y = 1/6 x - 1/2 + 3

y = 1/6 x + 5/2

Convert to standard form:

1/6 x - y = -5/2

Multiply through by 6:

x - 6y = -15 (answer).
