Question

Write a point slope equation for -5/7 using the coordinates (6,2)

Answer 1

Answer:

(13, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = -5/7

(6,2)  

m = ( y2 - y1) / ( x2 - x1 )

-5/7 = ( y2 - 2) / ( x2 - 6 )

   

    -5 = y2 -2

        +2        +2

        -3 = y2

      7 = x2 - 6

    +6         +6

      13 = x2

Check answer again by log them in:

m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

m = ( -3 - 2 ) / ( 13 - 6 )

m = -5 / 7

I hope this helps!
