Answer:
y=1/2x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Use y=mx+b to substitute the slope for m and (6, -3) for y and x to find b.
-3=1/2(6)+b
-3=3+b
b=-6
The equation is y=1/2x-6
Answer: [tex]2y = x - 12[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating the equation of line when a point and slope is given is :
[tex]y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})[/tex]
[tex]x_{1}=6[/tex]
[tex]y_{1}=-3[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
substituting into the formula , we have
[tex]y-(-3)=\frac{1}{2}(x-6)[/tex]
[tex]y+3=\frac{1}{2}(x-6)[/tex]
[tex]2(y+3) = x - 6[/tex]
[tex]2y + 6 = x - 6[/tex]
subtract 6 from both sides
[tex]2y - x = -6-6[/tex]
[tex]2y - x = -12[/tex]
it could also be written as :
[tex]2y = x - 12[/tex]
