Question
Use the point-slope formula.Find the equation of the line that passes through the point whose coordinates are $(3,-1)$ and has slope $\frac{2}{3}$
Step 1
Step 1: First, we write down the point-slope equation for a line, which is given by $y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$, where $m$ is the slope of the line and $(x_1, y_1)$ is a point on the line. Show more…
