Question

write an equation in point slope form that represents a line that passes by (-9,-2) and has a slope of -4

Answer 1

y+2=-4(x+9)

Explanation:

Point slop form: y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

X-coordinate is -9 and the y-coordinate is -2.

slope is -4.

y-(-2)=-4(x-(-9))

y+2=-4(x+9)

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Point slope: y-y1 = m(x-x1)
Plug in the numbers
Solution: y+2 = -4(x + 9)
