Question

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope. (8, 3); m = 5

Answer 1

Hi welcome to openstudy :-)
Use the following:
\[\huge y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\]
where
m=slope
(x1,y1)

Answer 2

Im not new just a new account lol but thanks but I dont understand your response

Answer 3

Ok are you fimiliar with the point slope formula?

Answer 4

Yes and no

Answer 5

What do you mean? What part don't you understand? :-/

Answer 6

I do know about slope

Answer 7

Ok
We have this formula called the point slope formula
\[\huge~\rm~\bf~y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\]

Answer 8

ok

Answer 9

M is the slope
what is the # of the slope given?

Answer 10

8,3

Answer 11

m=5

Answer 12

Good :)
\[\huge~\rm~\bf~y-y_1=5(x-x_1)\]
can you tell me what
x=?
y=?

Answer 13

no

Answer 14

Look at the coordinates

Answer 15

8,3

Answer 16

Ok
from that which number is x
which is y

Answer 17

idk

Answer 18

in a coordinate pair we have (x,y)
(8,3) is our coordinate based off of this tell me what x and y are.

Answer 19

idk tbh

Answer 20

x=8 because it is the first number
y=3 because it is the 2nd number
(x,y) (8,3)
Now all you need to do is plug the numbers into the formula
x1=8
y1=3

Answer 21

Lol Im so confused

Answer 22

What is confusing?

Answer 23

everything

Answer 24

Look Nvm

Answer 25

\[\huge~\rm~\bf~y-y_1=5(x-x_1)\]
y1=3
x1=8
plug them in
