Answer:

The point slope form of the line would be y + 1 = 3(x - 2) and the equation of the line would be y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the point-slope form of the line, start with the base form of point-slope form. Then input the point we have and the slope in the appropriate places.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - -1 = 3(x - 2)

y + 1 = 3(x - 2)

Now to find the slope intercept form, you simply need to solve for y.

y + 1 = 3(x - 2)

y + 1 = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 7

What is the correct answer of 1/3

serious [3.7K]

The correct answer of 1/3 is the decimal form of it which is 0.3 repeated (you can put a line on top of the 3). If not just leave it as 1/3 it is simplified as a fraction.

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we look at where the equation intersects the y axis. It intersects at y = 4, which means that in the end of the equation there must be a "+4", so we can rule out the first two.

Second, we look at the slope of the line. Slope is defined as rise over run. As you can see in the graph, the line moves up 2 units while moving right 3 units. That means the coefficient of x (which is the slope) will be 2/3, which means the answer is y = 2/3x + 4.
