Question

Write the equation of the line in point-slope form. ASAP PLS !!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

y - 1 = $\frac{2}{3}$(x - 3)

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

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 1) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{1+1}{3-0}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$

and using (a, b) = (3, 1 ) , then

y - 1 = $\frac{2}{3}$ (x - 3)
