Question

Find an equation of the line that satisfies the given: (-3,-5); slope -7/2

Answer 1

y=-3.5*(x+3)-5 or 3.5x+y+15.5=0

Answer 2

7x+2y+31=0 looks fine as well.

Answer 3

how did you get that?

Answer 4

y = mx + b
-5 = -7/2(-3) + b
-5 = 21/2 + b
b = -31/2

y = -7/2x -31/2

Answer 5

given point (a,b), slope k

the equation should be: y=k*(x-a)+b

Answer 6

ok, i get it..! thanks
