GPT 3.5
The equation of a line can be found using the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
To find the slope (m), we use the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the given points:
m = (-2 - 5) / (6 - 0)
m = -7 / 6
Now, we can choose any of the given points to substitute into the equation. Let's use (0,5):
5 = (-7/6)(0) + b
5 = b
Therefore, the equation of the line is y = (-7/6)x + 5.
