Question

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (−1, 6) and has a slope of −3.

y − 6 = −3x − 3

y − 6 = −3(x + 1)

y = −3x + 3

3x + y = 3

Answer 1

The equation of a line with slope \(m\) that goes through the point \((x_0,y_0)\) is given by: \[
y-y_0 = m (x-x_0)
\]

Answer 2

the line that passes through the point (−1, 6) and has a slope of −3.
\((x_0,y_0)=(-1,6)\) and \(m=3\)

Answer 3

would it be possible to put it in understandable terms?

Answer 4

mezzfezz, do you know what point-slope form is?

Answer 5

Errrm

Answer 6

Replace \(m\) with \(3\) then replace \(x_0\) with \(-1\), etc...

Answer 7

Whoops, \(m\) is replaced with \(-3\)

Answer 8

y – y1 = m(x – x1)

Answer 9

so x1 and y1 will be replaced with the x and y of the given point (-1, 6)

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

and m is the slope

Answer 12

So B.

Answer 13

so do you know what the answer is now

Answer 14

BBBBBBBBBBBB

Answer 15
