Question 185715: In the equation y-9= -2(x+1) I know the slope is -2 but my homework question is: "use the point-slope form of the equation to identify a point the line passes through." Could it be as simple as (1,-9)? And how can I identify the next point it passes through with a slope of -2? Just guessing but would the next point the line passes through be (2, -11), because the rise is -2 and the run is 1? Please help!
