Question

How do you write an equation of the line that passes through the point (3,2) and has a slope of -2?

Answer 1

`color(orange)(2x + y = 8`

Explanation:

Slope `m = -2, (x_1 - y_1) = (3,2)`

Point-Slope form is `y - y_1 = m (x - x_1)`

`y - 2 = -2 * (x - 3)`

`y - 2 = -2x + 6`

`color(orange)(2x + y = 8`
