Question

What is the equation of the nine that passes through
5,1)
and has a slope of 6/5

Answer 1

y =
`(6)/(5)` x - 5

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m =
`(6)/(5)` , then

y =
`(6)/(5)` x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (5, 1 ) into the partial equation

1 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 1 - 6 = - 5

y =
`(6)/(5)` x - 5 ← equation of line

Answer 2

y 6/5x-2
