Question

Find the equation of the line with slope = -8 and passing through (9,-73). Write your equation in the form

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Find the equation for the line that passes through (−2,9) that has slope 7/3 Give your answer in point-slope form. You do not need to simplify. 2. Find the equation of the line with slope = -4 and passing through (-6,29). Write your equation in the form y= 3. Find the equation for the line that passes through the points (7,−4) and (4,9). Give your answer in point-slope form. You do not need to simplify.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

y = - 8x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

Here m = - 8 , then

y = - 8x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (9, - 73 ) into the partial equation

- 73 = - 72 + c ⇒ c = - 73 + 72 = - 1

y = - 8x - 1 ← equation of line
