Question

(2,-6); m= -1/4

(Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope)

Answer 1

y + 6 = -1/4(x - 2)

Explanation:

Point slope form:
`y - y_(1) = m(x - x_(1) )`

`y - y_(1) = m(x - x_(1) )` Substitute slope = -1/4 and point (2, -6)

`y - (-6) =\frac{-1}4} (x - 2)\\`

y + 6 = -1/4(x - 2)
