Maths - Equation of the Line
Well, I had this question on my second year christmas exam. The answer I got was y - 6x = -8, but most other people I asked got along the lines of 6x - y = 16/-16.
Here's the question.
C (2, 4) and D (1, -2) are two points.
Given that the slope is 6,
and the formula is y - y1 = slope (x - x1)
What is the equation of the line?
If you could show the work aswell, that would be absolutely awe-inspiring.
EDIT: I'M A GORON!!! YEEESSSS!!!
