Question

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 one half.

Answer 1

A. y - 6 = one half(x + 3)
B. y = one halfx - 6
C. y + 3 = one half(x - 6)
D. x - 2y = 12

Answer 2

2y = x -12

Answer 3

That's not one of the answers, can you explain?

Answer 4

y = x/2 - 6

Answer 5

Again you aren't helping... could you explain the steps? I have no idea how to do this.

Answer 6

point slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1)

using slope(m) = 1/2
(6,-3) x1 = 6 and y1 = -3
now we just sub

y - (-3) = 1/2(x - 6) =
y + 3 = 1/2(x - 6)

Answer 7

any questions ?

Answer 8

Okay, thank you! I understand how you substituted the data, thank you! :)
