Question

What is the equation of the line with slope `m= 15/17` that passes through `(-1,2/3)`?

Answer 1

`y=(15/17)x+(79/51)`

Explanation:

The equation of the line passing through `(-1,2/3)` is `y - (2/3) = m(x+1)`

`m= 15/17` is given.

Thus the equation becomes

`y -(2/3) = 15/17(x+1)`

or

`y= (15/17)x + 15/17+2/3`

or

`y=(15/17)x+(79/51)`[Answer]
