Question

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.

(–10, –5); m = 1/6
a. y + 10 = (1/6)(x + 5)
b. y + 5 = (1/6)(x + 10)
c. y – 5 = (1/6)(x – 10)
d. y – 5 = (1/6)(x + 10)

Answer 1

point slope form is
y - yo = m ( x - xo)
plug in
y-(-5) = 1/6 ( x-(-10))
y+5 = (1/6)(x+10)

B that is.
