Question

White an equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the given point and with the given slope m

(-5,1), m=6

Answer 1

y=6x+31

Explanation:

Answer 2

`y-1=6(x+5)`

Explanation:

The given point is (-5, 1) and the slope is 6.

Point-slope form is given by:

`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`

We will let (-5, 1) be (x₁, y₁) and we will substitute 6 for m. Therefore:

`y-(1)=6(x-(-5))`

Simplify:

`y-1=6(x+5)`
