Question

Write an equation with slope of negative 2 for (3, -4)​

Answer 1

Answer:

y = - 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2 , then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, - 4) into the partial equation

- 4 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 4 + 6 = 2

y = - 2x + 2 ← equation of line
