Question

a line with a slope of -1/3 passes through the point (6,4). what is its equation in point slope form use the specified point in your equation write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions simplify all fractions

Answer 1

y - 4 = -1/3(x - 6)

Explanation:

The general equation of the point-slope form of a line is given by:

y - y1 = m(x - x1), where:

• (x1, y1) is any point on the line,
• and m is the slope.

Thus, plugging in (6, 4) for (x1, y1) and -1/3 for m in the general equation of the point-slope form gives us:

y - 4 = -1/3(x - 6)
