Question

Use point-slope form to write the equation of a line that passes through the point(15, -19) with slope 3/8

Answer 1

The given point is (15,-19) and the slope is 3/8.

The equation of line in slope-point form is given by:

`\begin{gathered} y-(-19)=(3)/(8)(x-15) \\ y+19=(3)/(8)(x-15) \\ 8y+152=3x-45 \\ 8y-3x+197=0 \end{gathered}`

So the equation is given by 8y-3x+197=0.
