Answer 1

Ok so remember that point-slope formula is:
y-y1=m(x-x1) ?

Answer 2

yea

Answer 3

ok so do u remember what the M stands 4 in the equation?

Answer 4

slope

Answer 5

yeah and what's the slope in this problem? :)

Answer 6

Answer 9

yep nice ok, so now try to put the numbers into their places and show me what u get :)

Answer 10

y-12=13(x-15)

Answer 11

perfect! Ok is that as far as they wanted u 2 go or they wanted it in slope-intercept form? (y=mx+b) ?

Answer 12

point slope equation

Answer 13

Oh ok so I'm pretty sure that's it then :) is that one of ur answers?

Answer 14

had to type it in but yes it was right thanks

Answer 15

ok perfect! :) getting 2 understand how 2 do them a bit better?
