Question

find the equation of a line with slope -6 and passing through (-2,-3)

Answer 1

equation of a line has form: y=mx+b
what does m represent?

Answer 2

Use \[y-y _{1}=m(x-x _{1})\]

Answer 3

Here m=-6 y1=-3 and x1=-2 Now substitute

Answer 4

y+3=-6(x+2)

Answer 5

how do you put it in ax+by=c

Answer 6

now simplify
y+3=-6x-12
6x+y=-15
