Question

Write an equation of the line that contains the point (1,5) and have the same

y-intercept as the line 2x + 3y = 6.

Answer 1

Answer:
`y = 3x + 2`

Step-by-step explanation:
`2x + 3y = 6` in y-intercept form is
`y=(-2)/(3)x+2`. From this, we can make
`y=mx+2`. Substitute (x, y) with (1, 5) and you get
`5=1m+2`. Subtraction 2 from both sides and you get
`3=m`. We now have all the info we need. Assemble the equation and you got
`y = 3x + 2`.

Answer 2

y = -x + 6
