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)

Question

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)

a

anonymous · Answer

Slope: 
2-(-6)/0-4
=8/-4
=2

equation:
y-(-6)/x-4 =2
y+6/x-4 =2
y+6 = 2(x-4)

I think it should be like this......

anonymous · Answer

Nah it was A

anonymous · Answer

Thanks for trying though:D

hartnn · Answer

slope =(y2-y1)/(x2-x21) = (0-4)/(2-(-6))

anonymous · Answer

OH! thanks for telling me the correct answer :-)

anonymous · Answer

Hahah no problem

hartnn · Answer

none of the choices are correct :\

hartnn · Answer

slope =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (0-4)/(2-(-6)) = -1/2=m
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-4=(-1/2)(x+6)
or
2(y-4)=-(x+6)

anonymous · Answer

a is correct I know that for a fact buddy

anonymous · Answer

@hartnn

anonymous · Answer

None of the choices is correct. The right answer is y-4=(-1/2)(x+6).
@hartnn is right.

anonymous · Answer

NONE ANS

anonymous · Answer

It's A, I took the test an got it right

hartnn · Answer

i believe in myself more than the software used in your test...i'd still say its not A , its 2(y-4)=-(x+6)

anonymous · Answer

well...

hartnn · Answer

and i have proved it to you....

anonymous · Answer

if you say so bro
