Question

A correct description of the line defined by y-6= -1/2(x+7) is

a. it is a line through (-7,6) with a slope of 1/2

b. it is a line through (7,-6) with a slope of -1/2

c. it is a line through (-7,6) with a slope of -1/2

d. it is a line through (7,-6) with a slope of 1/2

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

The correct answer is C

Because taking the point to be (a,b)

`y - b = m(x - a) \\ \: is \: the \: \: equation \: \: of \: \: a \: line`
