Question

4. P(5, 2); m = 3
what is the given point and slope

Answer 1

Answer:

3x - y =13

Step-by-step explanation:

1. y - y1 = m(x - x1)
2. y - 2 = m(x - 5)
3. distribute
4. y - 2 = 3x - 15
5. jump -2 across the equal sign and change the sign
6. y = 3x - 15 + 2
7. combine like terms
8. y = 3x - 13
9. use this equation to find the standard form
10. y = 3x - 13
11. jump the x and change the sign
12. -3x + y = -13
13. x must be positive, so change the sign of everything
14. 3x - y = 13
