What is the point slope equation of the line through (3,6) (5,-8)

y-6 = -7(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 6 = m(x - 3)

y-6 = -7(x-3)

y - 6 = -7(x - 3)

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Algebra I

Slope Formula:

Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)  

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (3, 6)

Point (5, -8)

Step 2: Find slope m

Step 3: Write equation

Point (3, 6)

Slope m = -7

y - 6 = -7(x - 3)
