Let's Practice Putting the Data In

Given: m = 2 and a point on the line is (2, -5)

Directions: Write an equation for the line in point-slope form.

$$ Plug in m = 2 (slope) and the point $$ (2,-5)

y - -5 = 2(x - 2) Now, tidy up the equation to not leave double negatives.

y + 5 = 2(x-2) Ans that's it!!! You're done.



Now you try.

Given: m = -3 and a point on the line is (-3,4)

Directions: Write an equation for the line in point-slope form.
PLEASE ANSWER I NEED THIS OR IM GOING TO FAIL!!!!
