Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the points (-3,-4) and (3,4). How do you do point slope form?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can help if you want

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes please i really dont understand it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so point slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you need to find the slop of the line first. do you know how get the slope using the formula for slope?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes slope would be 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or no sorry is it 3/4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

neither. the slope is 4/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then you would input the slope into the point slope equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1440171953708:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry it took so long to type up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No its fine thank you that was so helpful!
