Question

Given m=3/2 and the point (-1,-3). which of the following is the point slope form of the equation?

Answer 1

In general the line with slope m through (a,b) is

`y - b = m(x - a)`

That's point-slope form. When a or b is negative the sign turns to plus.

Answer:
`y + 3 = \frac 3 2 (x + 1)`
