Question

Which is an equation in point-slope form for the given point and slope?
Point (2,-6) ; slope -3/4

Answer 1

the point slope form is
\[\huge y-\color{red}{y_1}=\color{blue}m(x-\color{green}{x_1})\]

Answer 2

replace \(\color{red}{y_1}\) by \(\color{red}{6}\) and replace \(\color{\blue}m\) by \(\color{blue}{-\frac{3}{4}}\) and \(\color\green{x_1}\) by \(\color{green}2\)

Answer 3

so it would be y-6=3/4(x-2)

Answer 4

right?

Answer 5

not quite

Answer 6

\[\huge y-\color{red}{y_1}=\color{blue}m(x-\color{green}{x_1})\] your answer is missing the minus sign for the slope
also \(y-(-6)=y+6\)

Answer 7

i think i meant "you're " missing the minus sign

Answer 8

so then y+6=-3/4(x-2)

Answer 9

yup

Answer 10

yayy thank you soo much

Answer 11

you are quite welcome dear, happy to help
