Reviewing Point Slope Form

Multiple Choice

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.

shell: $$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$$

(8,3) m = 6

• y + 3=6(x - 8)

• y - 3 = 6(x - 8)

• y - 3 = 6(x + 8)

Multiple Choice

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.

shell: $$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$$

$$\left(-10,\ -6\right)$$ $$m=-\frac{5}{8}$$

• $$y-6=-\frac{5}{8}\left(x+10\right)$$

• $$y+10=-\frac{5}{8}\left(x+6\right)$$

• $$y+6=-\frac{5}{8}\left(x+10\right)$$

Multiple Choice

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.

shell: $$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$$

$$\left(-2,1\right)\ \ m=-\frac{3}{8}$$

• $$y+1=-\frac{3}{8}\left(x+2\right)_{ }$$

• $$y-1=-\frac{3}{8}\left(x+2\right)$$

• $$y+1=-\frac{3}{8}\left(x-2\right)$$

Multiple Select

This equation is written in point slope form.

y - 5 = -4(x - 3)

What is the slope of the line?

What is the point that this line passes through?

You need to choose two answers.

• m = -4

• m = -5

• (-5, -3)

• (3, 5)

Multiple Choice

Which graph matches this equation?

y - 2 = -2(x - 1)

shell: $$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$$

Multiple Choice

Which graph matches this equation?
