Hi, there--
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The point-slope equation looks like this:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y-y%5B1%5D=m%28x-x%5B1%5D%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "This this case m is the slope, 7/2, while x[1] and y[1] are the x- and y-coordinates of your point (-3,4).
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "All we have to do is plug these values into the formula.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y-4=%287%2F2%29%28x-%28-3%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify to clear the parentheses around -3.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y-4=%287%2F2%29%28x%2B3%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
