Question 1176814: Use the given conditions to write an equation for the line in point-slope form.
Passing through (1, -6) with x-intercept = -1

y - 1 = - 3x or y - 6 = - 3(x + 1)
y - 6 = - 3(x + 1) or y = - 3(x + 1)
y + 6 = - 3(x - 1) or y = - 3(x - 1)
y + 6 = - 3(x - 1) or y = - 3(x + 1)

Answer by MathLover1(20855)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

where is a slope and is y-intercept
given:
line passing through (, )
with x-intercept = -> point (,)
use points to find slope




so far equation is

.......us a point (,) to find




and your equation is

or


equation in slope point form:
.......now use a slope and point (, )



so, answer is: or
