Question

A line has a slope of 3 and passes through the point (

–
3,
–
2). What is its equation in point-slope form?
Use the specified point in your equation. Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions. Simplify all fractions

Answer 1

• y + 2 = 3[x + 3]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

• Slope = 3
• Line passes through (-3, -2)

To find the equation of the line, we will need to use point slope form.

Point slope form formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Solution:

• y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
• ⇒ y - (-2) = 3[x - (-3)]
• ⇒ y + 2 = 3[x + 3] (In point slope form)

Answer 2

`\sf y - 2 = 3(x -3)`

Step-by-step explanation:

`\sf point \ slope \ form : \bold{y-y_(1)=m\left(x-x_(1)\right)}`

Here given :

slope, m : 3

coordinates : ( 3, 2 )

using the following given information:

• 
  `\sf y - 2 = 3(x -3)`
