Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (6, −3) and has a slope of one half.

y − 6 = one half(x + 3)
y = one halfx − 6
y + 3 = one half(x − 6)
x − 2y = 12

The answer is y+3=1/2(x-6). Btw, do you do k12?

Answer:


\text{The point slope form is }y+3=(1)/(2)(x-6)

Explanation:


\text{Given that the line line passes through the point (6,-3) and has slope }(1)/(2)

we have to find the equation of line in the point-slope form.


\text{The equation of line passing through the point (x',y') and has slope m is }


y-y'=m(x-x')


\text{Passing point=(x',y')=(6,-3)}


Slope=m=(1)/(2)

The equation is


y-(-3)=(1)/(2)(x-6)


y+3=(1)/(2)(x-6)

which is required point-slope form.

Option 3 is correct.
