What is the equation of a line passing through (-6, 5) and having a slope of 1/3 ? a. b. c. d. y = 3x + 7

Equation of the line is,

y = x/3 + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,a line passing through (-6, 5) and having a slope of 1/3

Points to remember

The equation of a line passing through the point (x₁, y₁) with slope m is given by

(y - y1)/(x - x₁) = m

To find the equation of line

here x₁ = -6, y₁ = 5 and m = 1/3

(y - y1)/(x - x₁) = m

(y - 5)/(x - - 6) = 1/3

(y - 5)/(x + 6) =1/3

y = x/3 + 7

change of stock price/initial stock price on friday * total stock value = change of stock value

0.89/73.73 *x = 42.72

x=3539.04 = total stock value at initial stock price on friday .

total stock value at initial stock price on friday/ initial stock price on friday = number of shares

3539.04/73.73 = 48 shares

they own 48 shares of this stock
