Question

anonymous · Answer

Use this formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)

melissa_something · Answer

y + 1 = 4(x + 3) ? Idk if its positive because (-3,-1) are both negative -.-

anonymous · Answer

Yes, y + 1 = 4(x + 3) is right.

melissa_something · Answer

omg thank you!!!(:

anonymous · Answer

I'm not sure what the choices are, but you probably need to distribute the 4 and solve for y.

anonymous · Answer

No prob. Glad I can help.

melissa_something · Answer

Its y = 4x - 1 

 y = 4x - 3 

 y = x - 3 

 y = x - 1

anonymous · Answer

I got y=4x+11
...

melissa_something · Answer

Oh wait major fail wrong answeres y - 1 = 4(x - 3) 

 y + 1 = 4(x + 3) 

 y - 3 = 4(x + 1) 

 y + 3 = 4(x - 1) 
my bad lol

melissa_something · Answer

But would it be y + 1 = 4(x + 3) because 2 negatives make a positive ?
