Question

What is the slope intercept form of the line with a slope of `-3` that passes through `(6,0)`?

Answer 1

`3x+y-18=0`

Explanation:

Equation of line passing through a point `(x_1,y_1)` and having a slope of `m` in point-slope form is given by `(y-y_1)=m)x-x_1)`

Hence equation of line passing through `(6,0)` and having slope `-3` will be

`(y-0)=(-3)xx(x-6)` or `y=-3x+18` or

`3x+y-18=0`
