The complete question is The slope of the line below is 0.5 Write the equation of the line in point-slope form, using the coordinates of the labeled point. <span>It's on a number line which is (3,-3) Do not use parenthesis on the y side.
we know that
</span>Point slope form is <span>y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) </span>
<span>Where m= slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point on the line </span><span>Plug in m = 0.5 and point (3, -3) </span><span>y-(-3)=0.5*(x-3)------> y+3=0.5*(x-3)
The quotients are equal because they both go in the same number of times. The second pair of quotients just have an extra 0 at the end which just changes the place value of the number.
