Question

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (-3, -1) with a slope of 4.

Answer 1

y-y1=slope(x-x1) where( -3, -1) =(x1 y1)

Answer 2

i dont understand how to do the formula

Answer 3

1) you have to use point slope formula which is y-y1=m(x-x1)
2) your y1 is -1 and your x2 is -3
3) your equation will look like y+1=4(x+3)
4) then use the distributive property to get y+1=4x+12
5) subtract 1 from both sides to get y=4x+11
6) that is your answer
Hope that helps :D
