medal to correct answer with explanation
Since they gave you the slope, All you need is the y intercept
\[y=-x+b\] plug in the point for x and y then solve for b.
\[b=y+x\] \[b=-1+-10=-11\]
You shouldn't go about that way, considering that they gave you the slope and a point and the answers are in "point-slope form" btw it would just be easier to plug the values in for that @donny471
\[\Large y-y1=m(x-x1)\]
Yea, but who can remember that formula? Besides this kind of calisthenics is more useful in the long run
(-10,-1)=(x1,y1) and m=-1
Besides where do you think they got that formula from?
Ax+By=C
it's so confusing
So now that you have the slope and the y intercept, you can put it into slope intercept form?
Hmm, not sure, it's useful to know both but y=mx+b is a lot easier to work with not as much stuff and the point-slope always changes into the slope intercept, idk i was just looking for the way to answer using the answer choices.
i came up with d
Yea, d is correct.
