What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (6,3) and has a slope
of -1/3? ANSWER NEEDED ASAP!!



Sagot :

Answer: [tex]y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 5\\\\[/tex]

Work Shown:

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\\\\y - 3 = -\frac{1}{3}(x - 6)\\\\y - 3 = -\frac{1}{3}x + \frac{1}{3}*6\\\\y - 3 = -\frac{1}{3}x + 2\\\\y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 2+3\\\\y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 5\\\\[/tex]

This line has a y intercept of 5, which means (0,5) is on the graph along with (6,3). The line moves downhill when moving left to right, because the slope is negative.
