Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-3,-1) and has a slope of 2?

Answer 1

Hello!

First, let's write the equation in Point-slope form.

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-1)=2(x-(-3) (Point-Slope Form)

Now, convert it into Slope-Intercept form:

y+1=2(x+3)

y+2=2x+6

y=2x+6-2

y=2x+4 (slope-intercept form)

Hope everything is clear.
