The point-slope form of a linear equation is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is the given point and m is the given slope.
In this case, the given point is (-10, -6) and the given slope is 1.
Plugging these values into the equation, we get:
y - (-6) = 1(x - (-10))
y + 6 = 1(x + 10)
Therefore, the equation in point-slope form for the line is:
C. y + 6 = -5/8 (x + 10)
Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope. (–10, –6); m = (1 point)
A. y – 6 = -5/8 (x – 10)
B. y – 6 = - 5/8 (x + 10)
C. y + 6 = -5/8 (x + 10)
D. y + 10 = -5/8 (x + 6)
