Question

Give the equation of a line that has a slope of 4 and passes through the point (3, –2).

A. y = 4x – 14

B. y = –2x + 11

C. y = 3x – 14

D. y = –2x – 9

Answer 1

if you plug in the slope and coordinates into \[y - y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})\] and solve for y you will have your y =mx +b equation :) i.e\[y +2 = 4(x-3)\] hope this was a nuff to get you started if not ask away :)

Answer 2

or u can use y=mx+c
m=slope

Answer 3

yep thats the easy way ^ thanks for saying a alternate method XD

Answer 4

so with y=mx+b it is -2 = 4(3) + b ?

Answer 5

yep

Answer 6

so -14 = b. what do I do next?

Answer 7

Is A correctttt??

Answer 8

yep..congrats..salu

Answer 9

thanks a lot:)
