Hi Jewel, leave a comment if you want more explanation of the following:
Step-by-step explanation:
point-slope formula: y-y1 = m(x-x1)
slope-intercept formula: y = mx + b
using point-slope: y-9 = 1/2(x-(-4))
= y-9 = 1/2(x + 4)
= y -9 = 1/2x +2
we’ve almost made it to slope-intercept from , notice, but the problem says to leave it in point-slope form, so there you go 🙂 and leave a comment if you need more explanations 🙂
