Question

the slope intercept form of the equation of the line that passes through point (-3,8) is y=-2/3x+6. what is he point-slope form of the equation for this line

Answer 1

2x + 3y = 18

Explanation:

y=-2/3x+6 needs to be re-written as 3y = -3(2/3)x + 18 (without fractions). This result simplifies to 3y = - 2x + 18, which can be re-ordered as

2x + 3y = 18 (equation in standard form)
