Question

State the equation of a line using pointslope form that passes through (6, -2) and (-3,-5)

A. (y+2)=1/3(x-6)
B. (y-2)=1/3(x+6)
C. (y+2)=3(x-6)
D. (y-2)=3(x+6)​

Answer 1

A) y+2=1/3(x-6)

Explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-5-(-2))/(-3-6)

m=(-5+2)/-9

m=-3/-9

simplify

m=1/3

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=1/3(x-6)

y+2=1/3(x-6)
