Question

How do you find equation defining the line which passes through the following pair of points: (0,4) (6,0)?

Answer 1

Equation of line would be y= `-2/3 x +4`

First write the slope=`(0-4)/(6-0) = -4/6= -2/3`

Next write the point slope form of the line as y-4=`-2/3 (x-0)`

This can be simplified to y= `-2x/3` +4
