Question

The slope of the line below is 3. Use the coordinates of the labeled point (6, 8) to find a point-slope equation of the line.

Answer 1

Answer:

${y-8} = 3{(x-6)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given slope of a line (m) = 3.

According to the question, we need to find a point-slope equation of the line using the given labelled point (x1,y1) = (6,8).

We know point slope form,

${y-y_1} = m{(x-x_1)}$, Where (x1,Y1) are given coordinate of the point and m is the slope.

Then, substitting the value of (x1,y1) = (6,8) and  (m) = 3 in the above point-slope form of equation of the line ${y-y_1} = m{(x-x_1)}$.

We get the point slope form of equation of the line:

${y-8} = 3{(x-6)}$.

Answer 2

point-slope equation

y - 8 = 3(x - 6)
