Question

what is an equation of a line in a point-slope form that passes through (1,-7) and has a slope of -2/3?

Answer 1

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

Explanation:

slope of -2/3, so m=-2/3

point slope form=y-
`y_(1)`=m(x-
`x_(1)`)

plug in your slope as well as your x and y values from your point

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

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