Question

Using point-slope form, write the equation of the line that passes through the point (-1/2,1/2) and has a slope of -1

Answer 1

Answer:

y - 1/2 = -(x + 1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use point slope form, y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line

Plug in the point given and the slope:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1/2 = -(x + 1/2)

So, the equation is y - 1/2 = -(x + 1/2)

Answer 2

Answer:

y - 1/2 = -(x + 1/2)

2-2=-1(1+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is given

y-y1=m(x-x1)
