Question

How do you write an equation in point slope form given (1,3) m= -3/4?

Answer 1

`y-3=-3/4(x-1)`

Explanation:

Point-slope form for an equation that passes through the point `(x_1,y_1)` and has a slope `m` is:

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

Here, we have

`x_1=1`
`y_1=3`
`m=-"3/4"`

Hence the equation

`y-3=-3/4(x-1)`
