What is the equation in Point-Slope form

of the line that goes through

the point (6,1) and has a slope of -3?

• y - 6 = -3(x - 1)

• y + 6 = -3(x + 1)

• y - 1 = -3(x - 6)

• y + 1 = -3(x + 3)

Convert the equation of the line

y + 5 = -3(x - 6)

into slope intercept form.

• y = -3x - 23

• y = -3x - 13

• y = -3x - 11

• y = -3x + 13
