Asked by lisa
i know that the slop intercept form is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
i have to write an equation for a line that has a slope of 6 and contains the point (-8,-7) even with the formula i don't now how, HELP!!!!

the x1 and y1 are the values of your given point, so just sub them in
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y - (-8) = 6(x - (-7))
y + 8 = 6(x + 7)
y + 8 = 6x + 42
y = 6x + 34
BTW, the formula you gave is generally called the slope-point form
the final version I gave you has the form
y = mx + b, which is called the slope-intercept form
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y - (-8) = 6(x - (-7))
y + 8 = 6(x + 7)
y + 8 = 6x + 42
