what is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-6,4) and has a slope of (-5÷6)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The equation in point slope form would be y - 4 = 2(x + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this equation, we would start by finding the slope using the slope formula.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (6 - 4)/(-5 - -6)

m = 2/1

m = 2

With that slope, we can pick either point and plug the three pieces of information into point slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = 2(x + 6)
