Which equation represents a line with a slope of -2/3 that passes through point (5, -2)?

a) 2x + 3y = –11

b) 2x + 3y = –4

c) 2x + 3y = 4

d) 2x + 3y = 11

Respuesta :

Answer:

c) [tex]2x + 3y = 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

−2 = −⅔[5] + b

3

1⅓ = b

y = −⅔x + 1⅓

Then convert to Standard Form:

y = −⅔x + 1⅓

+⅔x + ⅔x

__________

⅔x + y = 1⅓ [We do not want fractions in our Standard Equation, so multiply by the denominator to get rid of it.]

3[⅔x + y = 1⅓]

[tex]2x + 3y = 4[/tex]

* 1⅓ = 4⁄3
