Q. A line with a slope of 8 passes through the point (−6,10). 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.The point-slope form of a linear equation is given by the formula 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 are given the slope m=8 and the point (−6,10). Substituting these values into the point-slope form, we get y−10=8(x−(−6)).
Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation.Simplify the equation by distributing the slope and removing the double negative in x−(−6) to get y−10=8(x+6).
