Question

What is an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (4, −1) and has slope 6?

A. y + 1 = 6(x − 4)
B. y + 1 = −6(x − 4)
C. y − 1 = 6(x + 4)
D. y − 1 = −6(x + 4)

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: A

Explanation:

ight so basically you got (4,-1) and a slope of 6. you need this formula: y-y1=m(x-x1) so your y1 in this equation would be -1 and your x1 would be 4. now you gotta fill in the blanks which is y+1=6(x-4) (if you confused why the 1 turned to a positive, originally you’re supposed to subtract the y1 but since it was already negative, negative x negative = positive.) so now you got y+1=6(x-4) and boom

answer: y+1=6(x-4)
