Question

Write the equation of line with slope of -3, passing through (-1,7) . write in slope -intercept form.​

Answer 1

Hello there, hope you are having a nice day.

We are given the slope of the line and a point on the line, so we can write the equation in point-slope form:

y-7=-3(x-(-1)

y-7=-3(x+1)

y-7=-3x-3

Now, we move -7 to the right side, using the opposite operation:

y=-3x-3+7

y=-3x+4

This is the equation of our line. Hope it helps.

Ask me if you have any queries.
