1) Write an equation in point slope form
that passes through the point (1, 2) & slope
of -5

Sagot :

Answer:

y - 2 = -5 (x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for point-slope equation :

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

============================================================

Given :

⇒ Point (x₁, y₁) = (1, 2)

⇒ Slope (m) = -5

=============================================================

Solving :

⇒ y - 2 = -5 (x - 1)

Equation of line can be written in point - slope form as :

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

  • y1 = y - coordinate of point = 2

  • x1 = x - coordinate of point = 1

  • m = slope = -5

So, required equation is ~

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:y - 2 = - 5(x - 1)[/tex]
