PLEASE HELP ME!!!!! Explain your answer, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{-1}{2} x+\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard equation in point slope form is :
y-y_0 = m(x-x_0) +c
where m = slope = -1/2
(x_0,y_0) is the point from which the lines passes through = (5,-3)
We get the equation as,
y-(-3) = -1/2(x-5)
y+3 = [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex](x-5)
y = [tex]\frac{-1}{2} x+\frac{5}{2}-3[/tex]
y = [tex]\frac{-1}{2} x+\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]
Hence, m= -1/2 and c = -1/2
Required equations is:
y = [tex]\frac{-1}{2} x+\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]
