Which answer is an equation in point-slope form for the given point and slope?

Point: (7, 4) Slope: 6

y+4=6(x−7)

y−4=6(x−7)

y−7=6(x+4)

y−4=6(x+7)

Point-slope is y - y1 = 6 ( x - x1)
Plugging it in : y - 4 = 6 ( x - 7)

So the answer is the 2d one.

we know that

the equation of the line in the point-slope form is equal to


y-y1=m*(x-x1)

in this problem we have


Point (7,4)\\x 1=7\\y 1=4\\slope\ m=6

substitute the values in the formula


y-4=6*(x-7)

therefore

the answer is


y-4=6*(x-7)
