Question

what is the point slope form of an equation for the line that has the indicated slope and contains the given point slope= 1.3;(-6.1,5.3)

Answer 1

y - 5.3 = 1.3 (I x + 6.1 )

the equation of a line in ' point- slope form ' is

y - b = m (x - a) → m is the slope and ( a , b ) a point on the line

here m = 1.3 and ( a , b ) = ( - 6.1 , 5.3 )

y - 5.3 = 1.3 ( x -( - 6.1)) ⇒ y - 5.3 = 1.3 ( x + 6.1 )
