Question

Which equation represents a line that passes through (-9, -3) and has a slope of -6?

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

here m = - 6 and (a, b) = (- 9, - 3), so

y - (- 3) = - 6(x - (- 9)), that is

y + 3 = - 6(x + 9)

Answer 2

Answer:

y+3=-6(x +9)

Step-by-step explanation:

equation represents a line that passes through (-9, -3) and has a slope of -6is:

y+3=-6(x +9)

because : The equation of a linear function in point-slope form is:                    y – y1 = m(x – x1) ....m : the slope

The point is A (x1 , y1)

you have m = - 6      x1 = -9      y1 = -3
