Question 748547: find the slope intercept form of the equation of the line which passes through the point (-1,3) and has a slope of -2 Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Using y - b = m(x - a)
m= -2 . (-1,3)
y - 3 = -2(x -(-1))
y - 3 = -2(x + 1)
y - 3 = -2x - 2
y = -2x - 2 + 3
y = -2x + 1
