The point slope form:
We need to find the slope. To find the slope we can use the following formula:
Use the points <span>(-5, 6) and (0, 1) and plug it into our slope formula and solve:
</span>
So our slope is -1 which means m = slope = -1
Now that we have our slope lets create the point slope form
Our point slope form equation is
Remember
m = slope = -1. Also, we are going to use the point (-5,6).
First insert the m = slope = -1 number where m is located
Next, insert the -5 from (-5,6) where
is located and the 6 from (-5,6) where
is located.
Now simplify
