Algebra.Com's Answer #427179 by RedemptiveMath(80)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! You were off by a little mark. You were on the right path, but here is my work showing the correct answer:\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y+9 = -3(x-2) (point-slope form) \n" ); document.write( "y+9 = -3x+6 \n" ); document.write( "y = -3x-3 (slope-intercept form) \n" ); document.write( "3x + y = -3 (standard form).\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I don't know if you multiplied incorrectly or overlooked the distributive part. I don't know if your course wants you to provide the answer in a particular form, so I have included the three basic forms of linear equations. \n" ); document.write( " |
