Question

Find the equation of the line with the given slope that passes through the given point. Write the

Answer 1

Answer:

y + 3 = 2(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = 2 and (a, b) = (- 1, - 3), thus

y - (- 3) = 2(x - (- 1)), that is

y + 3 = 2(x + 1)
