Question

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line that passes through each point with the given slope (-1,-2) m= 3

Answer 1

Answer:

          y + 2 = 3(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The Point-Slope form of equation of a line with slope of "m" and passing through point (x₁, y₁) is:  y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

m = 3

x₁ = -1

y₁ = -2

Therefore the equation:

                                      y - (-2) = 3(x - (-1))

                                  y + 2 = 3(x + 1)
