HELP ME WITH MY MATH RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is the equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the point (3, 1) and has a slope of –2 ?


Drag and drop the appropriate number, symbol, or variable to each box.

Answer 1

the equation of a line that passes through $(x_1,y_1)$ and has a slope of m is $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

so given the point (3,1) and slope -2
(3,1), (x1,y1)
x1=3
y1=1
m=-2

the equation is
$y-1=-2(x-3)$
