write an equation of the line, in point-slope form, that passesthrough the given point and has the given slope? point: (8,-8);slope:3

Answer 1

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

Using the given point (8, -8) and slope 3, we can substitute these values into the point-slope form equation:

y - (-8) = 3(x - 8)

Simplifying, we get:

y + 8 = 3x - 24
