Question

Choose the equation that represents the line passing through the point (-2, -3) with a slope of -6

Answer 1

y=-6x-15. You do -6*-2 which is 12. And ti get to -2 you have to subtract -15. So it is y=-6x-15

Answer 2

Equation of line is 6x + y = -15

Explanation:

Equation of line passing through (x₁,y₁) and with slope m is given by

y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

Here (x₁,y₁) = (-2,-3)

Slope, m = -6

Substituting

y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

y - (-3) = -6 ( x - (-2) )

y + 3 = -6 ( x + 2 )

y + 3 = -6 x - 12

6x + y = -15

Equation of line is 6x + y = -15
