Question

Find the point on the line and the lines slope y+1=-3/2(x+7)

Answer 1

Answer:

A point on the line would be (-3, -7) and the slope if -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find a point on the line by choosing any value for x and putting it in to the equation. Then we can find the y value. For the purpose of this problem, we will use x = -3.

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

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

y + 1 = -3/2(4)

y + 1 = -6

y = -7

And we can find the slope simply by looking for the number outside of the parenthesis on the right side of the equal sign (-3/2)
