writing an equation in Point-Slope Form
Write the point-slope form of the equation for a line that passes through (6, -1) with a slope of 2.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

y+1 = 2(x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a point (6,-1) and a slope m=2

The point slope form of a line is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y- -1 = 2(x-6)

y+1 = 2(x-6)

Answer: y - (-1) = 2(x-6) which is basically y + 1 = 2(x - 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Disregard my explanation, its in the wrong form

Point-slope form is y = mx + b

They gave us m, 2. And they gave us the coords, (6, -1)

All you have to do is plug this info in to get:
