Question

write the equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the given point with the given slope (2,1); m=3

Answer 1

y - 1 = 3(x - 2)

Explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

m is the slope and (a, b ) a point on the line

given slope m = 3 and (a, b ) = (2, 1 )

substitute these values into the point- slope equation

y - 1 = 3(x - 2)
