Find the slopeintercept form of the line the given Parallel
Solution
Dear Student
Thank you for using Chegg !!
Given equation of a line
3x + 9y = 10
Writing the equation in slope intercept form
9y = -3x + 10
y = -(1/3)x + 10/9 (Slope intercept form is y = mx + c)
Now equation of a line parallel to this line will have same slope i.e. (-1/3)
Threfore equation will be y = (-1/3)x + c
Now since this line passes through (1,6) hence this point should satisfy line equatin
6 = (-1/3) + C
C = 19/3
Hecne the required equation of line is
y = (-1/3)x + 19/3
or
x + 3y = 19
Solution
