Question

Write the point -slope form of the equation of the line (-2,5), slope =6

Answer 1

y - 5 = 6(x + 2)

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 = 6 and (a, b) = (- 2, 5) , then

y - 5 = 6(x - (- 2)) , that is

y - 5 = 6(x + 2)
