Question

What is an equation of a line, in point-slope form, that

passes through (1, – 7) and has a slope of -2/3

y-7= }(1-1)
y+7= (1+1)
y-7=-|(+1)
y+7=-3(2-1)

Answer 1

y + 7 = -2/3 (x - 1)

Explanation:

Point-slope form is y - y1 = m (x - x1)

-7 is y1, -2/3 is m, and 1 is x1

When you plug the values in, you get y + 7 = -2/3 (x - 1)
