Question

FAN AND MEDAL
Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (−1, 6) and has a slope of −3

Answer 1

\[\huge~y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\]

Answer 2

m=slope
(x1,y1)

Answer 3

Btw.. It's *Stephen

Answer 4

still confused

Answer 6

@kyle55 what part are you confused about?

Answer 7

So since i have the slope of -3 and the one point
what do i do first

Answer 8

\[y-y1=-3(x-x1)\]

Answer 9

so that would be
y- 6 = -3(x + 1) ?

Answer 10

yep :)

Answer 11

Then from there distribute?

Answer 12

no

Answer 13

Well it said the point slope form

Answer 14

So i dont think so :/

Answer 15

oh so thats it

Answer 16

yes :)

Answer 17

tyvm

Answer 18

can u check my next question?

Answer 19

sure :)

Answer 20

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the points (−3, 2) and (2, 1).

Answer 21

what do i do first? same equation?

Answer 22

First we need to find the slope do you know how?

Answer 23

y1-y2 over x1-x2

Answer 24

Yes so find the slope first :)

Answer 25

1 over -1?

Answer 26

or -1

Answer 27

yes

Answer 28

Now we plug it into the same equation
lets use the point (-3,2)
and the slope as -1

Answer 29

so y - 2 = -1(x + 3

Answer 30

yep

Answer 31

a. y + 3 = −5(x − 2)
b. y − 2 = −5(x + 3)
c. y + 3 = −one fifth(x − 2)
d. y − 2 = −one fifth(x + 3)

Answer 32

those were the answers

Answer 33

ooo our slope must be wrong :/ let me double check

Answer 34

it would be -1/5

Answer 35

so d

Answer 36

yep :)
The rest of the equation remains the same

Answer 37

got more time?

Answer 38

I can help with more but repost it :)

Answer 39

On a diffrent thread :P

Answer 40

ill post my last 2 questions

Answer 41

ok :)
