Question

A line passes through the points (
–
6,10) and (9,0). Write its equation in slope-intercept form.
Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

Slope m = (0 − 10)/(9 − (−6)) = −10/15 = −2/3.
Using point-slope with (−6, 10): y − 10 = −2/3(x + 6) → y = −2/3 x + 6.

Answer: y = −(2/3)x + 6
