Question

What is the point-slope equation of a line with slope -5 that contains the point (6,3)

Answer 1

`y-3=-5(x-6)`

Explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line into point-slope form is equal to

`y-y1=m(x-x1)`

we have

`m=-5`

`(x1,y1)=(6,3)`

substitute

`y-3=-5(x-6)` ----> equation of the line into point-slope form
