Question

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line given Slope -6, passing through (5,6)?

Answer 1

`(y-6) = (-6)(x-5)`

Explanation:

The general point-slope form is
`color(white)("XXXX")` `(y-b)=m(x-a)`
`color(white)("XXXX")` `color(white)("XXXX")`for a line with slope `m` through `(a,b)`
