Question

What is the slope intercept form.slope 1/3 and passes through (6,-1)

Solution

We know that the slope intercept formula is given by:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where m is the slope and b the intercept so we can do this:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x+b[/tex]

Now we can use the point given x=6 and y=-1 to solve for b and we got:

[tex]-1=\frac{1}{3}(6)+b[/tex][tex]b=-1-2=-3[/tex]

So our equation would be:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x-3[/tex]
