Question

which of these points lies on the line described by the equation below?

y-8=3(x+6)

A. (8, -6)
B. (6, -8)
c. (-8, 6)
D. (-6, 8)

Answer 1

what do u think?

Answer 2

Im not sure

Answer 3

Test the options to see if the coordinates given make the equation true. To help you get started, I will check the first option.

Is A. (8, -6) a point on the line with equation: y-8=3(x+6)

x = 8 and y = -6
y-8=3(x+6)

-6 - 8 = 3 * ( 8 + 6 ) ?

-14 = 3 * 14 NO

The point in option A is not on the line.

Test option B @lilkg77

Answer 4

How do i do that without a graph?

Answer 5

find the slope

Answer 6

you know (-6,8) is already a point on the line from the equation

Answer 7

the y intercept is (0,26)

Answer 8

oh pfft the answer is d !
xD

Answer 9

You should study point-slope form before doing this, it is actually quite simple

Answer 10

Lol thanks man @TheSavior

Answer 11

No problem.

Answer 12

i also say it's D.
