multiple choice, Write an equation in point slope form for the line that passes through (-4, 3) and whose slope is 3 1)y – 3 = 3(x – 4) 2)y – 3 = 3(x + 4) 3)y – 4 = -3(x -3) 4)y + 4 = 3(x + 3)
3 = 3(-4) + c c = 3 + 12 c = 15
y = 3x + 15
im confused, isn't the answer one of the multiple choice?
Solve them
2)y – 3 = 3(x + 4)
i really don't know how man.
y = 3x + 12+3 y = 3x + 15
Lol, y dont u?? havnt u learn them yet?? then how u got this HW?
This is the equation for point-slope form: \[y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\] where \[(x_1,y_1)\] is the point given, and m is the slope. Since we are given the point (-4,3), and the slope is 3, we have: \[x_1 = -4, y_1 = 3, m = 3\] putting those into the equation we obtain: \[y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \Rightarrow y-3=3(x-(-4))\Rightarrow y-3=3(x+4)\] which i believe is answer choice 2.
if you need anything explained in further detail just ask.
