Question

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that passes through the point (3, -2) and has a slope of 2

Answer 1

given a point (Px,Py) and a slope m we can write:

y-Py = m(x-Px)

y = mx -mPx +Py ; where (-mPx +Py) forms a constant known as the y intercepts

Answer 2

y = 2x -2(3) -2 ; and simplify
