Question

Write the equation of a line with the slope of -3 and through the point (2,-2).

Answer 1

Answer:

  y +2 = -3(x -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is useful for this:

  y -k = m(x -h)   . . .    for a line of slope m through point (h, k)

__

  y +2 = -3(x -2) . . . . fill in the given values. Note that -(-2) = +2
