Question

Find the equation of the line with a slope of -1/3 that passes through the point (-1,-2). Give your answers in point-slope form, slope-intercept form and standard form

Answer 1

y=-1/3x-7/3

Explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

m=-1/3

y-(-2)=-1/3(x-(-1))

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

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

y=-1/3x-1/3-2

y=-1/3x-1/3-6/3

y=-1/3x-7/3
