A line passes through the point -2, 9 and has a slope of -3. Write an equation for this line
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "plug given info into \"point-slope\" form:
\n" ); document.write( "y - y1 = m(x - x1)
\n" ); document.write( "y - 9 = -3(x - (-2))
\n" ); document.write( "y - 9 = -3(x + 2)
\n" ); document.write( "y - 9 = -3x - 6
\n" ); document.write( "y = -3x + 3 (this is what they're looking for)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
