Question

Write an equation in slope intercept from of the line that passes through the point (3,-2) with slope -2

Answer 1

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies -2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-2)=-2(x-3) \\\\\\ y+2=-2x+6\implies y=-2x+4$
