Question

Write an equation in point slope form for a line with a point at (4,-5) and a slope of 2.

Answer 1

Similar Example:


If you're given a slope of 3 and a point of (1,-2), then


y - y1 = m(x - x1) ... Start with point-slope form


y - y1 = 3(x - x1) ... Plug in the given slope m = 3


y - (-2) = 3(x - 1) ... Plug in the given point (1, -2) for x1 and y1


y + 2 = 3(x - 1) ... Simplify
