Question

Find the equation of a line given the point and slope below. Arrange your answer in the form y = mx + b, where b is the constant.

(5, 5)
m = -3

Answer 1

\(\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1\\
&(5\quad ,&5)
\end{array}
\\\quad \\

slope = m= -3
\\ \quad \\

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\quad \textit{plug in your values and solve for "y"}
