Hey there!

  • We are given the slope of the line: 19/9.
  • We are also given one of the points that the line passes through.
  • Using this information, we can find the equation of the line.
  • First, let's recall the Point-Slope formula:
  • y-y1=m(x-x1)
  • Plug in the given values:
  • y-15=19/9(x-0)
  • y-15=19/9x
  • y=19/9x+15
  • Therefore, the equation is:
    y=(19)/(9) x+15 :)

Hope this helps. Use the comment section to clarify your doubts.
