Question

Write an equation in standard form for the line that passes through the given points (0,4) and (6,0)

Answer 1

2x + 3y = 12

Explanation:

0 - 4 = -4

6 - 0 = 6

-4/6 ÷ 2

slope = -2/3

y - 0 = -2/3 (x - 6)

y = -2/3x + 4 (ADD 2/3 ON BOTH SIDES)

3(2/3x + y = 4) (GET RID OF THE FRACTION)

2x + 3y = 12
