Question 455657
.
Using the Point-Slope form to write equations
m=3/4, (2,-6)
y--6=3/4(x--2)
How do I solve this problem?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



        From the post by @mananth, it is clear that he simply does not know 

        what a "Point-Slope form" is. Therefore, his solution and his answer are irrelevant,

        non-adequate and incorrect.


        I came to bring a correct solution.



<pre>
When the slope 'm' and coordinates of a point are given (a,b), the Point-Slope form equation
of a line with the given slope 'm' passing through point (a,b) is


    y - b = m(x - a).    <<<---=== by the  D E F I N I T I O N 


So, in this given problem, the required equation is

    y - (-6) = {{{(3/4)*(x-2)}}},


or, equivalently,

    y + 6 = 0.75*(x-2).     <U>ANSWER</U>

Solved.
