What is the equation of the line that has a slope of 3 and goes through point (4, 7)?
\[\huge~\rm~y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\] Use this it is the Point-slope formula Substitute the follwing values into the formula m=slope so 3 4=x1 7=y1 (x1,y1)
y-7=3(x-4) is that all?
Do they want slope -intercept form?
it just says write an equation, it doesn't specify what type.
hmm @Loser66 @perl
just simplify more
So slope intercept form.... y-7=3(x-4) \[\huge~\rm3(x-4) \] distribute that
y-7=3x-12 y=3x+19 I have no idea if i did that right
\[\huge~\rm~3 \times-4=??\]
OH right y=3x+5?
not quite :( answer my question because that will get you the right answer u are very close
-4 x 3 =?
-12
good y-7=3x-12 Ok now finish it off :)
y=3x-5?
yes :)
Good job ^_^
thank you for putting with my terrible math skills I appreciate it!
haha not bad :) theres always room for improvement if you ever need help feel free to pm or tag me :)
