I need help with an algebra question(:

OpenStudy (liv1234):

OpenStudy (utterly_confuzzled):

d point slope is y-y1=m(x-x1)

OpenStudy (utterly_confuzzled):

So y+8=3(x-8)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Does this help any? Simplifying y + 8 = 3(x + -8) Reorder the terms: 8 + y = 3(x + -8) Reorder the terms: 8 + y = 3(-8 + x) 8 + y = (-8 * 3 + x * 3) 8 + y = (-24 + 3x) Solving 8 + y = -24 + 3x Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-8' to each side of the equation. 8 + -8 + y = -24 + -8 + 3x Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0 0 + y = -24 + -8 + 3x y = -24 + -8 + 3x Combine like terms: -24 + -8 = -32 y = -32 + 3x Simplifying y = -32 + 3x
