Which equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6)? y = –y equals negative startfraction one-third endfraction x plus 5.x 9 y = –y equals negative startfraction one-third endfraction x plus 5.x 5 y = –3x – 11y y = –3x 25

Respuesta :

The equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6) [tex]\rm y=\dfrac{-1}{3}x+5[/tex].

What is the slope of the equation?

For all lines in slope y-intercept form, it would be very simple to just find the answer by finding yourself the slope and y-intercept of the line in question.

The slope of the line is;

[tex]\rm m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m =\dfrac{7-6}{-6-(-3)}\\\\m = \dfrac{1}{-3}[/tex]

The equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6) is;

[tex]\rm y=\dfrac{-1}{3}x+b\\\\6=\dfrac{-1}{3}(-3)+b\\\\6=1+b\\\\b = 6-1\\\\b=5[/tex]

The required line of the equation is;

[tex]\rm y =mx+c\\\\y=\dfrac{-1}{3}x+5[/tex]

Hence, the equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6) [tex]\rm y=\dfrac{-1}{3}x+5[/tex].
