Question

Writing equation and a point slope form for the given point and given slope negative 3 7 m equals 1/2

Answer 1

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 any point on the line.

Given the slope m = -3/7 and a point (x1, y1) is not provided, we cannot directly write the equation in point-slope form.

However, if the slope is 1/2 instead, we can write the equation in point-slope form.

Using the provided slope m = 1/2, the equation becomes:

y - y1 = (1/2)(x - x1)
