Question

What is the point slope form of (-7,5) , (1,-1)​

Answer 1

y-5=-2/3(x-(-7))

Explanation:

I just learned this recently as well so bare with me.

So the point slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1)

So first we have to find the slope. So we do 5-(-1)/-7-1=-6/8=-3/4

So now, we just have to plug in the numbers.

So y-5=-2/3(x-(-7)).

I know that looks a little funky but if you used the slope intercept form, you would get the same answer if you just simplified this version. Of course, you don't have to simplify this version because this version is completely acceptable.

I hope this helped.
