Question

Which is an equation in point-slope form for the given point and slope?

Point:(8,-4) ; Slope: -5/6


A y+4=-5/6(x+8)

B y-4=-5/6(x+8)

C y+4=-5/6(x-8)

D y-4=5/8(x-8)

Answer 1

so point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope. just plug in the info into the formula to get your answer

Answer 2

okay so its B

Answer 3

y + 4 = -5/6(x -8)

Answer 4

so the answer is c

Answer 5

thx so much

Answer 6

the point is (8,-4) and when you subtract a negative number, it becomes addition

Answer 7

so instead of y - (-4), it becomes y + 4

Answer 8

make sense?
