What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (2, -4) and has a
slope of 2


Sagot :

Answer:

y = 2x - 8    OR     4 - 2x = -4 - y

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point-slope form m(x₁-x₂) = (y₁-y₂); m means slope

plug in your numbers:

2(2-x₂) = (-4-y₂)

4 - 2x = -4 - y

or to put it into Y=mx + b:

y = 2x + 8
