write an equation un point slope form for the line through the gives point with the given slope.
(-3,4);m=2/3

a. y+3=2/3(x-50
b. y+5=(2/3)(x+3)
c. y-5=2/3(x-3)
d. y-5=2/3(x+3)

To find the answer, all we need to do is plug in the slope and point they gave us into the Point Slope Formula!

The point slope formula is ...


y - y_(1) = m ( x - x_(1) )

So lets put them in!

y - 4 = 2/3 (x - (-3))

Tip: remember when you subtract a negative number, it turns into adding !

So our final answer is probably D (I think you may have put a typo)


y - 4 = (2)/(3) (x + 3)
