Question

write an equation in point-slope form from the line through the given point with the given slope . (10,-9); m= -2

Answer 1

`\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-9})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies -2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}ll \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-9)=-2(x-10)\implies y+9=-2(x-10)`
