Question

Write a linear equation in point-slope form that passes through the point (5,-2) and has a slope of -3. (Do not use any spaces) *

Answer 1

Answer:

y + 2 = -3(x -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired equation in general form is y - k = m(x - h).

Here, substitute 5 for x, -2 for y and -3 for m, obtaining:

y + 2 = -3(x -5)
