Respuesta :
point slope form of the equation can be written as follows
y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)
y and x are the 2 variables , m is the slope and x₁ and y₁ are the respective coordinates for the given point
in this format a point of a line and the slope of the line are given. using this information we can write down the point - slope formula for the graph
since a point has been given we know the x₁ and y₁ coordinates.
These are the coordinates of the given point (-1,6)
x₁ = -1
y₁ = 6
slope has been given as -3, m = -3
substituting these values in the formula,
y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)
y - 6 = -3 (x - (-1))
y - 6 = -3 (x + 1)
answer is B.
y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

Answer:
The correct answer is option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two point form of the equation:
[tex](y-y_1)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\times (x-x_1)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=Slope=m[/tex]
[tex](y-y_1)=m\times (x-x_1)[/tex]
A line passing through the point (-1,6) with slope ,m = -3.
The equation of the line will be:
[tex]y-6=(-3)(x-(-1))=(-3)(x+1)[/tex]
Hence, the correct answer is option B.
