The point-slope form of the equation of a line is given by:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
where (x₁, y₁) is the given point and m is the slope.
Using the given values, we have:
x₁ = -19
y₁ = -15
m = 55
Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
y - (-15) = 55(x - (-19))
y + 15 = 55(x + 19)
Simplifying:
y + 15 = 55x + 1045
Finally, rearranging the equation:
y = 55x + 1030
Use point-slope form to write the equation of a line that passes through the point left bracket, minus, 19, comma, minus, 15, right bracket(−19,−15) with slope 55.
