Question

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point ( -8, 3) with slope 6

Answer 1

`\huge{\boxed{y-3=m(x+8)}}`

Point-slope form is
`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`, where
`m` is the slope and
`(x_1, y_1)` is a point on the line.

Substitute in the values.
`y-3=m(x-(-8))`

Simplify the negative subtraction to become positive addition.
`\boxed{y-3=m(x+8)}`

Note: This answer is in point-slope form. If this is not an answer choice, or if you prefer a different form for another reason, please let me know in a comment and I will be happy to provide another form of the equation.
