Question

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through
the points (-3,-4) and (3,4).

Answer 1

Answer 2

you need the slope first

Answer 3

\(y−y1=m(x−x1)\)

\(m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)

Answer 4

\(\large\tt \begin{align} \color{black}{(x_1,y_1)=(-3,-4)~ and~ (x_2,y_2)=(3,4).}\end{align}\)

Answer 5

\[m=\frac{ 4-(-4) }{ 3-(-3) }\]

Answer 6

8/6

Answer 7

always reduce fractions as much as possible

Answer 8

4/3

Answer 9

that is your slope

Answer 10

ok so the equation is y=mx+b

Answer 11

m=4/3

Answer 12

but what is b

Answer 13

they want the answer in point-slope form

Answer 14

y=mx+b is slope intercept form
