Question
Write an equation in point slope form for the line that passes through the point with the given slope (2,1);m=-3/2
Answers
Bosnian
The "point-slope" form of the equation of a straight line is:
y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )
In this case:
x1 = 2 , y1 = 1 , m = - 3 / 2
y - 1 = - 3 / 2 ( x - x1 )
y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )
In this case:
x1 = 2 , y1 = 1 , m = - 3 / 2
y - 1 = - 3 / 2 ( x - x1 )
Bosnian
Since x1 = 2
y - 1 = - 3 / 2 ( x - 2 )
y - 1 = - 3 / 2 ( x - 2 )
