Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through (–1, 5) and has a slope of 3 in point-slope form.

Answer 1

Hello,

The equation for point-slope form is y-y1 = m (x-x1).

Let's plug in the numbers for the equation: y-5 = 3 (x+1). This is the equation for point-slope form with the given slope and pair.

Hope this helps!
