What is the equation for the line with a slope of - 2/3 that passes through (0, -2)

y= -2/3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a point and a slope, we can use the point slope formula

m is the slope. In this case, m is -2/3

y1 is the y coordinate of the point. In this case, it is -2

x1 is the x coordinate. In this case it is 0.

We can substitute these values into the formula

y- -2= -2/3(x-0)

Distribute -2/3

y+2 = -2/3*x + -2/3*0

y+2= -2/3x+0

Subtract 2 from both sides. We want to get y by itself. This is because we want our line to be in y=mx+b form.

y+2-2= -2/3x+0-2

y= -2/3x -2

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
