General Form - Ax+By+C=0
Point (0,-2) Slope m=3 When I put this in general form from slope intercept form I got the right answer:
y=3x-2
minus y on each side
3x-y-2
However on the next one Point (2,-3) Slope m=-(1/2) I did the same thing and it was wrong please help.
y=-(1/2)x-2
-(1/2)x-y-2=0
I got the exact opposite of the right answer.
Why do you sometimes move everything over to the y as in the second problem but others times move it all over on the other side as in the first problem!? This question is from textbook
