Question

How do you write an equation of a line given slope 1/3 and y-intercept (0, -6)?

Answer 1

`y=1/3x-6`

Explanation:

The equation of a line in `color(blue)"slope-intercept form"` is

`color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(a/a)color(black)(y=mx+b)color(white)(a/a)|)))`
where m represents the slope and b, the y-intercept.

here `m=1/3" and y-intercept" =-6`

`rArry=1/3x-6" is the equation"`
