Question

(-8,5) M= -2/5 converted into point slope form

Answer 1

The point slope form of point (-8,5) and slope m = -2/5 is $y-5=\frac{-2}{5}(x+8)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a point (-8,5) and slope m = -2/5 and we need to write it in point slope form.

The standard form of point slope is:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

where m is slope and (x_1,y_1) is the point.

Putting values and finding point slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y-5=\frac{-2}{5}(x-(-8))$

$y-5=\frac{-2}{5}(x+8)$

So, the point slope form of point (-8,5) and slope m = -2/5 is $y-5=\frac{-2}{5}(x+8)$
