Write the point-slope form of an equation for a line that passes through the point with the given slope.
(-6, -2), m = -2

y+2 = 2(x + 6)
y + 2 = -2(x + 6)
y + 2 = -2(x-6)
y - 2 = -2(x + 6)

Respuesta :

Answer:
y+2=-2(x+6)

Explanation:
Point-slope form: y-b=m(x-a) when the points are (x,y) and (a,b)

“M” means the slope.

Because we are already given a point, we just need to plug in the values as a and b. We can also plug in the value for the slope as m.

y-b=m(x-a)
y-(-2)=-2(x-(-6))
Two negatives make a positive
y+2=-2(x+6)

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.
