Question

8.
What is the equation of the line, in point-slope form, that passes through the given point and has the given slope?
Point: (8,-8); Slope: 3

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN HOW TO DO THIS PLEASE A MEDAL IF SO??

Answer 1

y-y1= m(x-x1) just substitute values in there, secondly its a medal which is given after choosing best response

Answer 2

what's x and what y?

Answer 3

the given point is (x1,y1), so because the given point is (8,-8), this means

x1 = 8
y1 = 8


the given slope is m = 3

Answer 4

so

y-y1= m(x-x1)

transforms into

y-(-8)= 3(x-8)

and that turns into

y+8 = 3(x-8)

Answer 5

its the standard format of a line and x and y are the points lying on the line

Answer 6

Thank you very much !!
