Question

A line passes through point (6,7) and has a slope of -3/2.

Write an equation in Ax + B y=C form for this line.
Use integers for A, B, and C.

Answer 1

Equation of line is given as y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Since line has a slope of -3/2, equation is y = -3/2x + c.

Substitute (6,7) into the equation to find c.

7 = -3/2(6) + c

c = 16

Hence equation of line is y = -3/2x + 16.
