Question

What is the equation for :(1,-6) and m=-5

Answer 1

Answer:

y + 6 = -5(x-1) slope-point form

y = -5x - 1 slope-intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an equation in slope -point form

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-6) = -5(x - 1)

y + 6 = -5(x-1) slope-point form

We can rewrite it in slope-intercept form

y + 6 = - 5(x - 1)

y + 6 = - 5x + 5

y = -5x - 1 slope-intercept form
