Question

9. Write an equation in slope intercept form that
passes through (6,2) and (-3.0)

Answer 1

y = -2/9x+2/3

Explanation:

First find the slope

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

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

= -2 /-9

2/9

The slope intercept form is

y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2/9x+b

Using the point -3,0

0 = 2/9(-3) +b

0 = -2/3+b

b = 2/3

y = -2/9x+2/3
