<PRE><B>Question 645086</B>
Use the point-slope form to write the equation of the line that has the indicated slope and contains the indicated point. Express the final answer in standard form.
m = 3/2, (&amp;#8722;2, 4)
------
Form: y = mx + b
You know y = 4, when x = -2, and you know m = 3/2.
Solve for &quot;b&quot;:
4 = (3/2)(-2) + b
4 = -3 + b
b = 7
-------
Equation:
y = (3/2)x + 7
