need some help with point slope form , ill post the question below
Which is an equation in point-slope form for the given point and slope? Point: (2, -6) ; Slope: -3/4 A. y - 6 = -3/4(x + 2) B. y - 6 = 3/4(x - 2) C. y + 6 = -3/4(x - 2) D. y + 6 = -3/4(x + 2) will medal and fan for some help
@pooja195
\[\huge y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\] where m=slope (x1,y1)
so would it be A? just plug in the numbers like last time?
Almost when you have 2 negatives together it becomes a positive try again. :)
D?
Nope ok what us our y value?
-6
ok good and our x value is?
2
Good -6 is the only one that needs to be changed to positive not the 2 \[\huge~\rm~y--6=-3/4(x-2)\] Ok now answer your question :)
so its C?
Yes! :)
ok thanks i have a few more if you dont mind
I can help you out ^_^
What is the point-slope form of the equation of a line that passes through the point (3, 5) and has a slope of 2? so would this one look like this since there all positive? y + 3 = 2(x + 5)
or would there be a - instead of a + for both of them?
It would be - because we don't have 2 negative numbers in a coordinate
ok thank you
yw ^_^
Which equations are equations for the line shown? Choose all answers that are correct. A. y - 4 = -1/3(x + 2) B. y + 2 = 2(x - 5) C. y - 1 = 1/3(x - 5) D. y + 2 = 1/3(x + 4) https://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/1511000_1511500/1511273/1/8cb79430986ea09dc1933c14b634c7da7ba42cf8/MS_IMC-140804-180203.jpg
You wouldn't even need the graph for this just take the 2 coordinates and find the slope first
Need help?
i believe the answer is a and c?
