Question

What is the standard form equation of the line passing through (5, –3) with a slope of –3?

Answer 1

Equation will be:

\[\huge \color{green}{y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)}\]

m= -3
\(x_1, y_1\) = (5, -3)

Plug in the values and then solve..

Answer 2

After plugging in the values you will get:

\[y +3 = -3(x - 5)\]

\[y + 3 = -3x + 15\]
\[y = -3x + 12\]

Answer 3

thank you!
