Question

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.

(-10,-6); m = -5/8
a. y - 6 = -5/8(x-10)
b. y - 6 = -5/8(x+10)
c. y + 6 = -5/8(x+10)
d. y + 6 = -5/8(x+6)

Answer 1

Point slope form: y-y1=m(x-x1)

Using this: (-10,-6); m = -5/8

We can format the information like this: y+6=-5/8(x+10)

Answer: C
