Question

write an equation in point-slope form for the line that passed through the given point with the given slope. point: (-4,6) slope:8

Answer 1

`y-6=8(x+4)`

Explanation:

The point-slope formula is
`y -y_(1) =m(x -x_(1))` where we substitute a point (x,y) for
`(x_(1),y_(1))`.

We have slope represented as m=8 and (-4, 6). We input m and
`x_(1) =-4\\y_(1)=6`.

`y-6=8(x-(-4))\\y-6=8(x+4)`
