Question

What is the equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the point (−1, −3) and has a slope of 4?

Answer 1

Answer: y + 3 = 4 (x +1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The eqution of a line in point- slope form is given as :

$y-y_{1}$ = m($x-x_{1}$ )

Where m is the slope and ($x_{1}$ , $y_{1}$) is the given point

substituting the values into the formula , we have:

y - (-3) = 4 ( x - {-1) )

y + 3 = 4 ( x + 1)

This is the equation of the line in point-slope form.
