Answer: (y − 0) = -(1/6)(x − 6) or y=-(1/6)(x-6)
Explanation:
An equation in Point Slope form: y − y1 = m(x − x1), where m is the slope and x1 and y1 are provided as a single point, (x1,y1). We have slope(m) = -(1/6) and are given (6,0). Therefore:
(y − 0) = -(1/6)(x − 6) (Point slope form)
y = -(1/6)(x-6)
Rewriting this into standard form, y = mx + b
y = -(1/6)x + 1
