Question

And that includes the point (-5’2) has a slope of -4. what is its equation in point slope form?

Answer 1

The equation of the line in point-slope form is y - 2 = -4(x + 5).

Explanation:

Use the point-slope equation:
`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`.

Substitute the point (-5, 2) and the slope m = -4 into the equation.

• 
  `y-(2) = -4(x - (-5))`
• 
  `y-2=-4(x+5)`

If we stop here, this is the equation of the line in point-slope form.
