Question
Convert the following equations from point-slope form to slope-intercept form.
9) y – 4 = 3(x – 1)
10) y – 1 = -4(x – (-3))
Answer:
We need to solve both for y.
#9:
[tex]y – 4 = 3(x – 1)\\\\y – 4 = 3x – 3\\\\y = 3x + 1[/tex]
#10:
[tex]y – 1 = -4[x – (-3)]\\\\y – 1 = -4(x + 3)\\\\y – 1 = -4x – 12\\\\y = -4x – 11[/tex]
