Write an equation in​ point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and with the given slope m. left parenthesis negative 7 comma 4 right parenthesis​; mequals7

Answer 1

Hello, there is an error in the other person's answer.

point is (-7,4)

so, it must be y - 4 = 7 (x +7) , since x - (-7) = x + 7

Answer 2

Given point: ( x₁ , y₁ ) = ( -7 , 4 )

Given slope: m = 7

Format of point-slope: y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

Substituting in the given values:

y - 4 = 7 ( x - ( -7 ) ) = 7 ( x + 7 )

And that's all there is!
