THIS PROBLEM I HAVE TO PUT IT IN THE STANDARD FORM FOR SLOPE (Ax+By=C). AND THE QUESTION IS WRITTEN
WRITE THE EQUATION THROUGH M=2 AND PASSING THROUGH (-1,-1)
When given a point and a slope, you can use the point-slope formula to find the equation of a line. highlight%28y-y1=m%28x-x1%29%29, where m=slope, and (x1,y1) is the given point.
:
m=2 and (x1,y1)=(-1,-1)
y-%28-1%29=2%28x-%28-1%29%29
y%2B1=2%28x%2B1%29
y%2B1=2x%2B2
y%2B1-1=2x%2B2-1
y=2x%2B1 This is slope intercept form
-2x%2By=-2x%2B2x%2B1
-2x%2By=1 Some books accept this, others don't want a leading -x.
-%28-2x%2By%29=-%281%29
2x-y=-1 Standard Form.
Happy Calculating!!!
