Question

Need help! confused with slopes!
Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (-2, -3) with a slope of -6.

y + 3 = -6(x + 2)

y + 2 = 6(x + 3)

y - 3 = -6(x - 2)

y - 2 = 6(x - 3)

Answer 1

Well all these answer choices are in the point slope formula form

\[y - y_0 = m(x - x_0)\]

You replace the 'm' with your given slope
the Yo with your given 'y' value
and the Xo with your given 'x' value

Answer 2

so you have your point

(-2 , -3)
( x , y)

so replace the Yo with -3
replace the Xo with -2
and replace the m with your slope which = -6

Answer 3

thanks!

Answer 4

no problem!
