Question

What is the equation of the ine that has a slope of 4 and passes through the point (3, -10) ?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is

$\huge y = 4x - 22$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line given the slope and a point we use the formula

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

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question the point is (3, -10) and the slope 4

We have

$y + 10 = 4(x - 3) \\ y + 10 = 4x - 12 \\ y = 4x - 12 - 10$

We have the final answer as

$y = 4x - 22$

Hope this helps you
