Question

Find the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (4, -2) With a slope of 1/4

Answer 1

(y+2)=1/4(x-4) is the answer because you use the formula (y-y1)=slope(x-x1)

Answer 2

Hey there!

Point-slope form is defined as:

y - y1 = m(x2-x1)

All we have to do here is plug in our values in the point given and the slope. We have:

y - (-2) = 1/4(x-4) =

Therefore, our answer is:

y + 2 = 1/4(x-4)

Hope this helps!
