Question

The slope of the line below is -4. Write the equation of the line in point-slope
form, using the coordinates of the labeled point. Do not use parenthesis on
the y-side.

(-2, 2)

Answer 1

Answer:

y - 2 = - 4(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = - 4 and (a, b) = (- 2, 2 ) , then

y - 2 = - 4(x - (- 2) ) , that is

y - 2 = - 4(x + 2)
