Question

Which equation in point-slope form contains the points (2,6) and (-1,3)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form is expressed as

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where

m represents slope

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

The given points are (2,6) and (-1,3)

y2 = 3

y1 = 6

x2 = - 1

x1 = 2

Slope,m = (3 - 6)/(- 1 - 2) = - 3/- 3 = 1

To determine the equation, we would substitute x1 = 2, y1 = 6 and m= 1 into the point slope form equation. It becomes

y - 6 = x - 2

Answer 2

So to make this in point-slope form, we need to know the equation. The equation for point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1), using this will get you the answer you need, but for now, namely, your answer is y-6=1(x-2).

Now you know the answer as well as the formula. Hope this helps, have a BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY!
