Question

Find a​ point-slope form for the line with slope 1/5 ( 1 over 5) and passing through the point ​(−8​,−9​)

Answer 1

Answer:

y + 9 = 1/5(x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Substitute the values into the equation.

y - (-9) = 1/5(x - (-8)

y + 9 = 1/5(x + 8)
