Q. A line has a slope of 31 and passes through the point (−10,−4). What is its equation in point-slope form?Use the specified point in your equation. Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions. Simplify all fractions.y−=(x−)
Identify Point-Slope Form: Identify the point-slope form of a linear equation.Point-slope form is given by the equation y−y1=m(x−x1), where m is the slope of the line and (x1,y1) is a point on the line.
Substitute Slope and Point: Substitute the given slope and point into the point-slope form.We have the slope m=31 and the point (−10,−4). Substituting these values into the point-slope form, we get:y−(−4)=(31)(x−(−10))
Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation.Simplify the equation by removing the parentheses and the double negative signs:y+4=(31)(x+10)
