The slope of the line below is 2. Which of the following is the point-slope form of the line? the x is 1 and the y is -1

Respuesta :

The point slope form would be y+1=m(x-1)


Answer:

[tex](y+1)=2(x-1)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the slope of a line is 2 and point (1,-1) in on our given line. We are asked to write the equation for our given line in point-slope form.

Since we know that point-slope form of an equation is: [tex](y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)[/tex], where

m = Slope of line,

[tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] = Coordinates of the given point on line.

Upon substituting our given values in point-slope form of equation we will get,

[tex](y--1)=2(x-1)[/tex]

[tex](y+1)=2(x-1)[/tex]

Therefore, the equation [tex](y+1)=2(x-1)[/tex] represents our given line in point-slope form.
