Use point-slope form to write the equation of a line that passes through the point (6,7) with slope -3

1 answer

The point-slope form of a linear equation is given by y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point on the line.

Given that the point (6,7) is on the line and the slope is -3, we can substitute these values into the point-slope form equation.

Therefore, the equation of the line would be y - 7 = -3(x - 6).
