Question

Write an equation in point-slope form of a line that has a slope of 2/3 and

passes through the point (9,5).*

Answer 1

y= 2/3x -1

Explanation:

Ok so basically we want to put it in the form y=mx+b where m is 2/3 and passes through the point (9,5). So sub in the x and y of the point in brackets into the equation. 5= 2/3(9) + b and solve for b so b = -1. Therefore the equation is y=2/3x -1
