Question

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (-1, 6) and has a slope of -3. (3 points)
Question 1 options:
1) y - 6 = -3x - 3
2) y - 6 = -3(x + 1)
3) y = -3x + 3
4) 3x + y = 3

Answer 1

y-y1=m(x-x1)
where
m=slope
(x1,y1)= point given

Answer 2

Plug that information into the equation I gave you and simplify accordingly.

Answer 3

we know
m=-3
(x1,y1)=(-1, 6)

Answer 4

plug that into
\[y-y1=m(x-x1)\]
