Question

3. Find the equation of the straight line through the given point and having the given slope m if
(1) P-(-1,-5),m=-6/11​

Answer 1

Answer:

6x+11y+61=0

Step-by-step explanation:

if slope =-6/11

then y/x=-6/11

so y=-6/11x

or 11y=-6x

therefore

11y+6x=0

so equation is 6x+11y=0

but

given x=-1 and y=-5 should be satisfied in eq.

i.e 6(-1)+11(-5)=-6-55=-61

so the equation is

6x+11y+61=0
