Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line described. Write the slope and y-intercept as improper fractions, if necessary.

passes through (6, 2), parallel to y=−23x+1

Answer 1

The line with equation y = -23x + 1 has slope -23.

Parallel lines have the same slope.

The line through the point (6, 2) with slope -23 has equation:

y - 2 = -23(x - 6)

Solve for y.
