Question

Write the equation of a line with the given slope that goes through the given point.

7) through: (3, -5), slope = -1
5
8) through: (3, 2), slope
3

Answer 1

7) y +5 = -(x -3)

8) y -2 = 5/3(x -3)

Explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation for a line is ...

y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

__

7) y +5 = -(x -3)

8) y -2 = 5/3(x -3)
