Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line with the given slope and point: slope = 3 and (1, -2).

Answer 1

okay you know the slope, but you don't know the intercept

Answer 2

M = slope = (y-y1)/(x-x1)

Answer 3

Ok. So would it be 3x-2

Answer 4

darn it i was doing it right...

Answer 5

nevermind, im having a long day already

Answer 6

haha xD

Answer 7

M = slope = (y-y1)/(x-x1)
3 = (-2-y1)/(1-x1)

Answer 8

y=3x+1 ?

Answer 9

okay im being retarded here. There's obviously an easy way. Final attempt at solution. If I'm wrong I'll leave this question, very embarrassed

Answer 10

Slope intercept form: y=mx+b

Answer 11

(1, -2); y=-2, x=1, slope = m = 3

Answer 12

-2 = 3*1+b

Answer 13

b = -2-3 = -5
y = 3x - 5

Answer 14

Yea my first solution was correct.. ><

Answer 15

Oh my gosh. I feel so dumb... hah. Thank you very much for your help! @bahrom7893
