Question

How do you write the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (−1, 6) and has a slope of −3?

Answer 1

`y - 6 = -3 (x+1)`

Explanation:

The point-slope fom of equation of a line passing through point

`(x_1 , y_1) or (-1,6)` having a slope `m=-3` is

`(y-y_1) =m(x-x_1)` or

`y - 6 = -3 (x+1)` [Ans]
