Question

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through the point (4, -3) is y=-3x+5. What is the point-slope form of the

equation for this line?
Point-Slope Form:y- y1=m(x-x1)

y-3--1/3x+4)
y-4--1/3 (X - 3)
y-4--1/3(x+3)
y+ 3 = -1/3 (x-4)

Answer 1

I think the answer is y+ 3 = -1/3 (x-4)

Explanation:

Answer 2

y+ 3 = -1/3 (x-4)

Explanation:

Simply plug in the values using (4, -3)

4 = x₁

-3 = y₁

Now one rule to keep in mind when plugging it in, since a negative and a negative make a positive, you have to add three instead of subtracting it.
