point slope formula

johnweldon1993 · Answer

for this...you use the formula...(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

anonymous · Answer

$$\frac{ Y_2-Y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }$$

anonymous · Answer

haha good job everyone!

johnweldon1993 · Answer

haha at least she know's everyones right because they're on the same page

anonymous · Answer

indeed

johnweldon1993 · Answer

And @tristynhart remember coordinates are in form (x,y)

anonymous · Answer

@tristynhart did you get it?
rather, do you understand it?

johnweldon1993 · Answer

@tristynhart need a little more?

johnweldon1993 · Answer

@e.cociuba no the answer is there...I just don't know if she needs a bit clearer of an explaination

Alright last hint will be

(-6, 0) and (2, -9)
 x1  y1        x2  y2

anonymous · Answer

(-6, 0) and (2, -9)? 

y2 = -9
y1 = 0

x2 = 2
x1 = -6

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = ??
