Part 1: Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (3, 4) and (–3, –8) in point-slope form.
Part 2: Using complete sentences, explain whether or not it matters which point is used in the final answer. Also explain why you chose the point you did.

(3, 4) and (–3, –8) in point-slope form.
m = (4 + 8) / (3 + 3) = 12/6 = 2
y - 4 = 2 (x -3)
=>y = 2x -2

doesn't matter which value you use for your point. Both will work out the same. they are both on the same line, that is why it does not matter which one you pick.
