Question

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

karon86 · Answer

Use the formula y-y1=m(x-x1)

karon86 · Answer

m=slope
(x1,y1)

karon86 · Answer

(x1,y1) are the points that passes through the slope

anx · Answer

y+4 = -3(x-3)

distrubute the -3 and add 4 to both sides

y+4 = -3x  -9
  +4           +4

y= -3x-5

karon86 · Answer

that would be the linear equation but the equation is y+4=-3(x-3)

karon86 · Answer

the equation in point-slope form is y+4=-3(x-3). You do not have to go any further unless the question asks for the Slope intercept form so basically you have the right answer
