Question

what is the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that goes through the point (-6,_4) with m=-1/2?

A) y= -1/2x+7
B) y= -1/2x+1
C) y= -1/2x-1
D)y= -1/2x-7

Answer 1

Plug into point-slope form which is:
\[y-y _{1}=m(x-x _{1})\]
where
\[x _{1}=-6, y _{1}=-4, m = \frac{-1}{2}\]

Answer 2

would it be C?

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4
