Question

What is the equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the point ( 2 , -4 ) and has a slope of 4?

Answer 1

Answer:

y+4=4(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

point slope form is $y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )$, where m=slope

Plug it in

y-(-4) = 4(x-2)

y+4=4(x-2)

Answer 2

Y+4=4(x-2).

Point slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1)

We can insert the equation by putting our slope (4) as m. Our y1 (-4) counters the subtraction sign, so that side of the equation will be y+4. Our x1 is positive, so it can be easily inserted into the formula (x-2).

Basically; insert the terms into the point-slope formula :)!

Hope this helped
