Question

Write the point-slope equation for the line with the given slope that contains the given point. m=-4/-3 ; (7, -1)

Answer 1

the slope form for this is Y= m(y-1) (x-1) or you could use MX+B form as well.

does this help?

Answer 2

lets use the form y=mx+c
slope m= 4/3 given
now u need to find c only
you have a point (7,-1) on it
so put x=7 and y=-1 in the equation and find the value of c
got this?
if yes,can u tell me what value u got of c?

Answer 3

You just made my head spin.

Answer 4

hey hartnn,

Point slope form is what I typed right? I thought it he was asking to write the the point slope form? did I miss something here??

Answer 5

ohh! slope point form,i missed that
the slope point form is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
you have the values of m as 4/3 and (x1,y1)=(7,-1)
just put the values,and u get the equation

Answer 6

ok thanks

Answer 7

y+1=-4/-3(x-7)
