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)

How do you calculate slope using a graph?

• rise over run

• run over rise

• look at the y intercept

• look at the x intercept
