A. y+2=1/3(x+3)
b. y+2=1/3(x-3)
C y+3=1/3(x+2)
D y-3=1/3(x-2)

Answer 1

y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

Explanation:

The general equation for a line in point-slope form is:

y₁ - y₂ = m(x₁ - x₂)

In this form, "m" represents the slope, "x₁" and "y₂" represent the values from one point, and "x₂" and "y₂" represent the values from a second point.

You have been given the slope and values from one point. Therefore, you can plug these values into the formula to find the correct equation. Since you were given the values of only one point, the subscripts in the final answer are insignificant.

m = 1/3

x = 3 y = 2

y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

(I am not sure why this answer doesn't seem to be one of the options. I even checked with an online calculator. Perhaps while you were copying something over, something was mistyped).
