A line passes through (-2,-3) and has a slope of -3/4 which is an equation of the line?
F: y - 3 = -3/4 (x-2)
G: y + 3 = -3/4 (x-2)
H: y - 3 = -3/4 (x +2)
J: y + 3 = -3/4 (x+2)
please explain.
So a line has the following formula:
ax+b
a is the slope and b is the point where x = 0.
The slope is -3/4
so its -3/4 * x + b
To get b we just put the point into the equation.
f(x) = -3/4 * x + b
-3 = -3/4 * -2 + b I
-3 = 6/4 + b. I -b I +3
-b = 18/4
b=-4.5
Oh wait i didnt read ur answers.
Ayy another edit:
y= -3/4 * x - 4.5. I +3
y+3 = -3/4 * x - 1.5
is equal to:
y+3 = -3/4(x+2)
Im way to tired but jea no prob.
