What is the equation of the line that passes through the pont (6,2) and has a
of -2/3

 y

=

−

x

+

Explanation:

Given that we have the slope and a point on the graph we can use the point slope formula to find the equation of the line.

Point-Slope Formula:  

y

−

y

=

m

(

x

−

x

)

, where  

m

is the slope of the line and  

x

1

and  

y

1

are x and y coordinates of a given point.

We can summarize the information already given:

m

The equation above is the equation of the line in point-slope form. If we wanted to have the equation in  

y

=

m
