Question

A line passes through the point , 9,−2 and has a slope of 4/3. Write an equation in point-slope form for this line.

Answer 1

Answer:

y+2 =  4/3( x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point on the line

y - -2 = 4/3( x-9)

y+2 =  4/3( x-9)

Answer 2

Answer:

y + 2 = $\frac{4}{3}$ (x - 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = $\frac{4}{3}$ and (a, b) = (9, - 2) , thus

y - (- 2) = $\frac{4}{3}$ (x - 9) , that is

y + 2 = $\frac{4}{3}$ (x - 9)
