Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the points (−6, 4) and (2, 0).

y − 4 = −(x + 6)

y − 4 = 2(x + 6)

y + 6 = −(x − 4)

y + 6 = 2(x − 4)

anonymous · Answer

i think its the second one but i am not sure.

anonymous · Answer

isn't the slope -1/2?

anonymous · Answer

yea for the first and 3rd answers there is a -1/2 half for slope idk y it got deleted

anonymous · Answer

I would say that it should be y-4=-1/2(x+6)

anonymous · Answer

thanks

anonymous · Answer

no prob :)

shamim · Answer

the formula is$$y-y _{2}=\frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }(x-x _{2})$$

shamim · Answer

here $$x _{1}=-6 ,y _{1}=4,x _{2}=2,y _{2}=0$$

shamim · Answer

or, we can let$$x _{1}=2,y _{1}=0,x _{2}=-6,y _{2}=4$$

shamim · Answer

now u can try to solve it
