Question 103046: find an equation in standard form of the line containg point P and having slope m P(-3,-2),m=1/2 Answer by elima(1433) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! P(-3,-2),m=1/2
standard form = y=mx+b
we are given x and y, but we do not know b, so lets but the values in the equation and solve for b;
-2=1/2(-3)+b
-2=-3/2+b
-2+3/2=b
-4/2+3/2=b
-1/2=b
So the equation is;
