Question

Write an equation in Point-Slope Form for the given information.

m=4/5;(2,0)

Answer 1

y-0 = 4/5(x-2)

Explanation:

0 is the y point so it goes in the y-y1 spot. The m or the slope goes into the m spot by the parenthesis. The 2 goes into the spot of the m-m1. One thing that is important is that when plugging in the point into the equation is to always put in the inverse. So if 3 was the y point, the equation would be y-3, if it was a negative point it would be, y + 3.
