Q. A line with a slope of −9 passes through the point (7,9). What is its equation in point-slope form?Use the specified point in your equation. Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions. Simplify all fractions.y−______=______(x−______)
Identify Point-Slope Form: Identify the point-slope form of a linear equation.The point-slope form of a linear equation is given by the formula y−y1=m(x−x1), where m is the slope of the line and (x1,y1) is a point on the line.
Substitute Slope and Point: Substitute the given slope and point into the point-slope form.We are given the slope m=−9 and the point (7,9). Substituting these values into the point-slope form, we get y−9=−9(x−7).
Check for Simplification: Check for any simplification needed. In this case, there is no simplification needed because the equation is already in the correct form.
