Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope m = 5/6

The points (-2,1)

So; y1 = 1 and x1 = -2

The equation is y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = 5/6(x + 2)

Multiply each term by 6

6y - 6 = 5(x + 2)

6y - 6 = 5x + 10

6y = 5x + 10 + 6

6y = 5x + 16

- 5x + 6y = 16

Multiplying by minus

5x - 6y = -16

Answer:

5x - 6y = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

5/6 = (y - 1)/(x - 2)

cross multiplying,

5x + 10 = 6y - 6

5x - 6y = -16
