Question

Sydney wrote the equation y+1=1/2(x−3). y + 1 = 1/2 ( x − 3 ) . explain her error and then write the correct equation in point-slope form.

HELP PLEASEEEEEE!!!!

Answer 1

See explanation

Explanation:

Given that the correct point-slope form is;

y - b = m(x - a)

So she made an error in writing y + 1, that part is wrong.

So the equation that was written wrongly is; y+1=1/2(x−3)

We have to rewrite the entire equation;

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