Question

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (3, −2) and has a slope of 23 ?

Answer 1

y + 2 = 23(x - 3)

Explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

here m = 23 and (a, b) = (3, - 2), hence

y + 2 = 23(x - 3) ← in point- slope form
