Question 899989: I need help on this question:
Given m = 1/2 and the point (-2, -8), which of the following is the point-slope form of the equation?
a.y - 8 = ½(x - 2)
b.y + 2 = ½(x + 8)
c.y + 8 = ½(x + 2)
d.y - 2 = ½(x - 8)-i picked

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(-2, -8) Ordered pair (x,y)
You have Your x and y mixed Up and Your signs
b. y + 2 = ½(x + 8)
check the Format for the Point-slope Form
