Question

What is the point slope form of the line with a slope of five and passes through the point (-6, 6)

Answer 1

y - 6 = 5(x + 6)

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

Here slope m = 5 and (a, b ) = (- 6, 6 ) , then

y - 6 = 5(x - (- 6) ) , that is

y - 6 = 5(x + 6) ← in point- slope form
