Question

Find an equation of the line:
Through (3,3); m=-5/7

Answer 1

use the point-slope formula

Answer 2

go quick look it up and see!!!!!

Answer 3

would this be the answer: 5x+7y=36?

Answer 4

how did you get that answer?

Answer 5

i really suck at math

Answer 6

question: how did you get that answer
answer: I really suck at math

I don't think we are having the same conversation

Answer 7

actually the answer has to be in standard form not the point slope one

Answer 8

The given info includes the point (3,3) and the slope m=-5/7.
@nincompoop is correct in suggesting that you look up the point-slope form. If you have a textbook for your course, please look there. If not, do a quick Internet search for "point-slope." This research will likely give you the "point-slope formula."

True, the answer needs to be put into standard form, but the easiest way to get there is to use the point-slope formula first and then convert the result to the equation of a line in standard form.

Answer 9

@chringuyen86, @nincompoop and and @mathmale are right, once you have an equation with point slope form, all you gotta do is find a way to convert it to standard form

Answer 10

the point-slope will help you solve the problem and then from point-slope you can pretty much turn it into slope-intercept form or standard form
