Question

Which equation shows the point-slope form of the line that passes through (3, 2) and has a slope of 1/3

O y + 2 =1/3(x + 3)
O y-2=1/3(x-3)
O y + 3 = 1/3(x+ 2)
O y-3= 1/3(x-2)

Answer 1

y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

Explanation:

Point slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

Plug in the slope:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - y1 = 1/3(x - x1)

Plug in the given point:

y - y1 = 1/3(x - x1)

y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

So, the correct answer is y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)
