Q:
Find the equation in terms of x of the line through (-3,1) and (3,0)
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:The answer to your question is: y = -1/6 x + 1/2Step-by-step explanation:DataA (-3, 1)B (3, 0)Formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) y = mx + b (y - y1) = m(x - x1)Process m = (0 - 1) / (3 + 3) m = -1 / 6 ( y - 1) = -1/6 (x + 3) 6 ( y - 1) = -1(x + 3) 6y - 6 = -x - 3 6y = - x - 3 + 6 6y = -x + 3 y = -1/6 x + 3/6 y = -1/6 x + 1/2 x + 6y -3 = 0 x = -6y + 3
