Point Slope Form

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.
(4, -7); m = -1/4

• y +7 = -1/4(x - 4)

• y - 4 = -1/4(x + 7)

• y+ 7 = 4(x - 4)

• y - 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

For the equation
y - 3 = 2(x + 4),

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope:
 (-2, -1); m= -3

• y + 1 = -3(x - 2)

• y + 1 = -3(x + 2)

• y - 1 = 3(x - 1)

• y + 2 = -3(x + 1)
