Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (6, -3) and has a slope of 1/2 . (1 point) y - 6 = 1/2 (x + 3) y = 1/2 x - 6 y + 3 = 1/2 (x - 6) x - 2y = 12

@Chris911 @helpout3

OpenStudy (ankit042):

y -y1 = m(x-x1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ankit042 how do u know?

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

point slope form : y - y1 = m(x - x1) slope(m) = 1/2 (6,-3) x1 = 6 and y1 = -3 now just sub that into the formula

OpenStudy (ankit042):

it is the standard form ....put the values and you will have your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

O okay so B!!!

OpenStudy (ankit042):

OpenStudy (ankit042):

Nooo are you shooting in the dark lol x1 = 6 y1= -3 and m= 1/2 now can you try

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm sorry I've never been good at this stuff, I'll try again :/

OpenStudy (ankit042):

np :) just concentrate and you will get it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
