You can put this solution on YOUR website!
PUT THE SLOPE AND POINT INTO THE FORMULA OF THE POINT-SLOPE FORM EQUATION! This is direct substitution, and nothing more.


Formula for point-slope equation of a line: y-v=m%28x-u%29 for some slope m and point (u,v) on the line.

You are given m=7/8 and a point on the line (-2,-9).

Equation using those data: y-%28-9%29=%287%2F8%29%28x-%28-2%29%29.
