    Answer:

    y – 3 = 5/3(x – 6)

    General Formulas and Concepts:

    Algebra I

    Slope Formula: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

    Point-Slope Form: y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)  

    • x₁ – x coordinate
    • y₁ – y coordinate
    • m – slope

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Define

    Point (9, 8)

    Point (6, 3)

    Step 2: Find slope m

    1. Substitute:                    m=\frac{3-8}{6-9}
    2. Subtract:                       m=\frac{-5}{-3}
    3. Simplify:                        m=\frac{5}{3}

    Step 3: Write function

    Slope m = 5/3

    Point (6, 3)

    1. Substitute:                    y – 3 = 5/3(x – 6)
