Question

Which is a equation in point-slope form for the given point and slope?

Answer 1

`y+7 = -(2)/(3)(x -1)`

Explanation:

To write the equation of a line, substitute m = -2/3 and the point (1,-7) into the point slope formula.

`y - y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y - -7 = -(2)/(3)(x -1)\\y+7 = -(2)/(3)(x -1)`
