Question

Rewrite the equation as y-2=-2/3(x-(-1)) to identify a point on the graph

Answer 1

Answer:

  point (-1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation is shown here in point-slope form, so a point on the graph can be read from the given equation. (No further rewrite is necesary.)

The point-slope form is ...

  y -k = m(x -h)

Comparing this to your given equation ...

  y -2 = (-2/3)(x -(-1))

we see that ...

  k = 2, m = -2/3, h = -1

The point on the graph is (h, k) = (-1, 2).
