Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line through point P(6,7) with slope -2.
A. y-7=-2(x-6)
B. y=-2x+7
C. y=-2x+19
D. y-6=-2(x-7)

Write the equation for the vertical line that contains point E(8,6)
A. X=8
B. y=6
C. y=8
D. X=6

Answer 1

for the first one use the equation of the line \(Y-Y_{1}=m(X-X_{1})\) where \((x_{1} , y_{1})\) are the given points and m is the slope.

for the second one: equation for the \(vertical\ line\) is the x-coordinate..
